SMP to SSMP Adapters
Mechanc SMP to SSMP RF adapters are miniature between-series solutions engineered to connect SMP push-on systems rated up to 40 GHz with SSMP ultra-miniature interfaces supporting up to 65 GHz. These adapters allow compact SMP-based assemblies to integrate seamlessly into high-density SSMP platforms where size, weight, and broadband performance are critical.
They are typically used in aerospace payloads, defense electronics, and miniaturized communication modules, where SMP interconnects must reliably transition into SSMP push-on connections. Excellent VSWR and low insertion loss ensure stable broadband performance across mission-critical environments.
Mechanical options include straight-body designs with SMP interfaces available in full-detent, limited-detent, or smooth-bore variants, enabling engineers to select the correct retention force for vibration-sensitive or high-cycle applications.
All Mechanc SMP→SSMP adapters are manufactured from stainless steel housings with gold-plated beryllium copper contacts, ensuring repeatable performance across thousands of blind-mate cycles. Each unit is supplied with S-parameter data, dimensional drawings, and RoHS/REACH compliance for simplified integration.
Engineers rely on Mechanc SMP to SSMP RF adapters when ultra-compact push-on transitions are required. For the reverse configuration, see our SSMP to SMP Adapters.
