How will 5G be part of bringing the cable assemblies for higher frequencies into a mass market?
The new 5G or 6G standard gives us as users a higher data rate plus bandwidth. This means that the operating frequencies go up. Certain of the experience with 2G / 3G / 4G we know which qualities will be at a meeting and which commercial aspects are to be included, high quantities, constant and stable quality plus a fairer price. We led the major research projects XFEL in Hamburg or the GESTRA project. We refer to products that have a related connection with properties such as phase and amplitude graduality of temperature and deflection.

Simple connection cable: The Conformable Coaxial Cable can be bent quickly, simple and easily - without tools. Ideal connection cable: The ideal cable for development, bandwidth up to 40 GHz and shielding attenuation up to -120dB. In addition, it can be installed manually. Inexpensive connection cable: Ready-made standard lengths make the cable the most inexpensive flexible coaxial cable, made by elspecgroup

The optimal measuring cable is not found by chance, but after carefully weighing up all the relevant criteria. We have put together for you how to ask the right questions and whether expensive is the same. Measurement RF Expert, Dipl. ING. Stefan Burger, explains.

5G means extreme bandwidth of data for Internet of Things, Autonomous Cars, Machine to Machine. 5G means transmission frequencies are increasing. Our optimal 5GHz frequency means 24 to 100GHz, our users need cables in the range of 1GHz, 2GHz to 6GHz and, 24 to 44GHz.

Is there actually a 5G connector?

For us in elspecgroup it is the connector 2.92mm, also called K-connector. Structure analogous to the SMA series - the high frequency connector in the industry. Inside is a precision air dielectric and this connector is available in 2 special versions, once in the version IP67 and in the version mode-free up to 44GHz, the Expanded K version. Expert tip: if it should be smaller, there is the precision SMP and the SMPmini.
