Amphenol Introduces New IP67 Fakra Rear Mount Bulkhead Plug for RG-178 Cables

Amphenol RF has introduced a new IP67 FAKRA straight crimp rear mount bulkhead plug into our automotive and industrial portfolio. This plug is designed to support industry- standard RG-178 cable. This FAKRA plug is color-coded and mechanically keyed for easy installation and is available in a variety of key codes, including the universal Z code. Amphenol RF FAKRA interconnects are ideal for applications like GPS, ADAS, and communications.

This rear-mount bulkhead plug allows the connector to mount through a panel or enclosure wall, providing a stable and secure connection. The plug is sealed in both the mated and unmated conditions, ensuring the system remains safe from external influences. A gasket seals the interface while an o-ring seal sits between the flange and panel mount for added security. The plug is engineered with a ruggedized, plastic housing over a nickel-plated diecast zinc alloy body and flange. It features a gold- plated brass center contact and a nickel-plated copper ferrule.

This 50 ohm FAKRA plug ensures reliability with high-frequency data transmission up to 6 GHz, and standard straight crimp die sets are used to terminate the connector to the cable. It joins a growing portfolio of IP67 FAKRA rear-mount bulkhead plugs engineered to accommodate a wide variety of automotive cable types.
