Key Specifications
Description
BMA Plug (Male) Bulkhead Cable Connector for RG 405, DC - 18 GHz, VSWR ≤ 1.25, 50 Ω, with Soldered Cable Entry.
The BMA1EA50-0085A BMA Plug (Male) Bulkhead Connector is designed for reliable RF and microwave signal transmission in 50 Ω systems. Engineered for .085 in. semi-rigid RG-405 cable assemblies, this BMA connector supports frequencies from DC to 18 GHz while maintaining a VSWR of 1.25 or better. Its compact bulkhead design and slide-on coupling mechanism make it a practical choice for high-frequency interconnect applications where stable electrical performance and easy installation are required.
Built with a beryllium copper center contact featuring gold plating, a passivated stainless steel body, and a PTFE insulator, the connector combines conductivity, durability, and signal integrity. Key electrical characteristics include insertion loss of ≤ 0.05 × √F (GHz) dB, insulation resistance of ≥ 5 GΩ, and low contact resistance of ≤ 2.0 mΩ.
With a mating life of 1,000 cycles or more and an operating temperature range from -65°C to +165°C, the BMA1EA50-0085A is well suited for RF test equipment, aerospace electronics, communication systems, and other demanding microwave applications requiring dependable DC-18 GHz performance.
