Frequency Range,Frequency is the number of electromagnetic waves that pass a given point in 1 second Hertz is the unit of frequency measurement Generally, the RF performance of a connector degrades as the frequency is increased (c=f) Wavelength decreases, therefore small

Return Loss or VSWR,A measure of how much power is reflected Return Loss: The portion of a
12、 signal that is lost due to a reflection of power at a line discontinuity. Return Loss is similar to VSWR and is generally preferred in the CATV industry to a VSWR specification VSWR: Acronym for Voltage Standing Wave Ratio. VSWR is the ratio of voltage applied to voltage reflected. It is the major
13、factor contributing to the total signal efficiency of the connector. Best performance is achieved when the impedance of the cable and the connector are the same (matched),Return Loss = Ratio of reflected to incident power in dB VSWR = Ratio of maximum to minimum electric field (Voltage),# 5. Inserti
14、on Loss,Insertion Loss is expressed in dB, and is a measure of the total loss of power going through a device IL = -20*log (Pout/Pin) Includes losses due to reflection (usually the dominant factor unless the Return Loss is very low -26 dB), plus losses due to the dielectric and metal conductors (Attenuation) Long Cable assembly-Connector insertion loss not usually significant Short cable assembly- Connector insertion loss can be significant Typically, connector insertion loss is very small (.1-.25 dB),
