Switching Connectors

RF switching connectors are PCB mount receptacles or adapters with a built-in mechanical switch function. This "two in one" solution provides a unique means of switching between two RF signal paths, typically between an internal and an external antennas.
The switch is activated by mating and unmating a standard plug to the switching connector. The features helps to increase the density on the PCB boards by reducing the number of components, which significantly reduces the cost of ownership.
Several series include PCB connectors with a switch function, from micro miniature to medium power series.
