DIN 7/16 connectors are mechanically robust HF connectors that can be used up to 7.5  GHz .

history

The 7/16 connector was developed in the 1960s. The Munich-based company Spinner played a decisive role in the development .

Application area

The 7/16 connectors are preferred for higher high-frequency power or when the connection is exposed to mechanical environmental influences. Typical applications are the connections for antennas in mobile radio systems .

Technical specifications

The wave resistance is 50 ohms. The inner contact has a diameter of 7 mm and the outer contact a diameter of 16 mm. The exact specification is laid down in the DIN 47223 standard.
