Online Catalog Navigation Guide
DELTA ELECTRONICS MANUFACTURING
We have configured this online catalog to take advantage of Acrobat navigation shortcuts (links).
However, these links are not visible on the pages— making them visible would compromise the
page’s readability.
•
Clicking on any entry in the Table of Contents will take you to the indicated page.
•
Shown below are the “hot spots” on all of the product pages that will take you to background
information on various connector characteristics.
•
After you use a link to jump to another page, you can use the “back” arrow in Acrobat’s menu bar
to return to the page you jumped from.
•
Configure Acrobat Reader to show bookmarks for a table of contents by specific characteristic
(for example, cable plugs broken out by cable attachment method).
•
To find a specific part number, use Acrobat’s search feature.
In addition, the pages are formatted to fit within the margins of standard laser or inkjet printers—
no need to use the “shrink to fit” option when printing pages from Acrobat.

Introduction and Specifications
DELTA ELECTRONICS MANUFACTURING
General Description
Delta type N connectors are medium size, 50Ω impedance connectors with
5
⁄
8
"-24
threaded coupling.
They are best suited for use with cables in the range of .350" to .450" diameter, but are
available for other cables with diameters from .100" to over 1". M39012 QPL N connectors
and M55339 QPL N adapters are also included in this catalog. Our extensive line of type N
receptacles includes configurations for virtually any packaging requirement, and we can supply
any adapter or accessory you need to complete your system design.
As with our other connector series, Delta’s
customer-driven design
results in N series connectors
with practical and unique features that make your design and assembly process easier.
Some of these include:
•
Heli-Grip
cable connectors for fast, reliable assembly to flexible cable without special tooling.
•
One-Step
cable connectors for quick, accurate assembly to semi-rigid cable.
•
PressMount
receptacles (page 25) mount securely in a single round hole, saving space on
your components and reducing your housing fabrication costs.
•
Panel receptacles with flange sizes to match the same hole pattern as standard SMA or
BNC/TNC connectors, letting you drill one hole pattern and mount BNC, N, SMA, TNC,
or 7/16 series connectors as needed.
•
70Ω impedance N connectors (see page 29) for matched-impedance applications.
Our N series product line is still growing, so please call if you don’t see what you need.
For adapters between N and other series, download the document
DeltaABS.pdf
from our website.

About Delta’s
Customer-Driven Design
At Delta,
Customer-Driven Design
isn’t just a catchy slogan. It means that we make RF
connectors that help you build your products efficiently, quickly, and cost-effectively. Because
we design for
your
needs, nobody else can offer you such a broad line of standard connectors,
along with an ever-growing list of innovative, user-friendly design variations like those detailed
on these pages.
These featured connector technologies grew out of real-world requirements, and have saved
our customers untold hours and dollars over the years. And there are thousands of other
special connector designs we’ve produced that we don’t have space to include in this catalog.
So if you don’t see the exact connector configuration you need, please call us—we may have
already made it. If not, we’ll work with you to provide the the connectors you need, with the
best price/performance balance in the business, and with quality and delivery that will enhance
your products and production schedules.

Plating Options for Economy and Performance
(Albaloy or nickel—available for all connector series except SMA)
Silver plating has long been standard on RF connectors with brass bodies, but its high cost
and low corrosion resistance make it less than ideal in most applications. Nickel plating is
less expensive and more durable than silver, and is standard on many of our connectors.
However, in some applications, nickel plating can introduce unwanted intermodulation
distortion, particularly on large size connectors. For these applications, we offer optional
Albaloy plating, a tin/zinc/copper composite with a bright white finish, the corrosion
resistance of nickel, and the low intermodulation distortion of silver plating.
Albaloy plating has the same composition as, and is fully compatible with, other
®
commercial platings designated Sucoplate
,
IP-23, White Bronze, and Tri-Alloy.
To order a Delta connector with plating other than the listed finish, substitute
A, N,
or
Q
in the Delta part number as below:
For
silver
plating: 1111-111-A111.
For
nickel
plating: 1111-111-N111.
For
Albaloy
plating: 1111-111-Q111.
Note:
M39012 and M55339 QPL connectors can only be supplied with the
specified plating. SMA connectors with stainless-steel bodies are available
with gold plating or passivated finish.

Common Flange Sizes Simplify Your Production
(Available on BNC, N, SMA, TNC, and 7/16 series connectors as noted in product pages)
Does it make sense that you have to drill your components with different mounting hole
patterns whenever you need to ship them with a different connector series attached?
We didn’t think so, either.
That’s why we offer a wide range of connectors in different series with common flange
sizes and contact/insulator configurations. Now you can streamline your production
process and shorten your delivery cycle—just predrill your components with one
mounting hole pattern, and ship them with the connectors your customers require.

N Panel Receptacles With One-Piece Bodies
(Available for most type N 4-hole flange receptacles—contact factory for exact types)
Our
in-house
machining capability now includes production of type
N flange receptacles with one-piece bodies, replacing the old
machined body/stamped flange method. With no unsightly solder
joints, these connectors have enhanced appearance and strength
compared with two-piece designs. The machined flanges are flatter
than stamped flanges, and our high-speed turning centers can
produce any volume required to fill your production quantity needs.
