Coaxial Connectors and How to Connect with the PCB

This free one-hour webinar presents practical guidance for achieving low-loss connections between coaxial connectors and printed circuit boards. The session covers the most relevant parameters affecting impedance and demonstrates how these factors can influence overall performance. Methods for identifying interference points are discussed, along with criteria for determining acceptable levels of loss in real-world applications. Attention is given to the connector characteristics that are most important for maintaining quality, especially at high frequencies. Live simulations using CST illustrate how adjustments to the PCB layout can impact connection behavior. The presentation also outlines the design process for RF connectors, providing a clear view of industry best practices.
