The cables themselves are useless unless they end with a konektor or a more special coaxial konektor. A coaxial konektor allows one cable to be connected to another cable or a device. Therefore, there are two different types of konektors: those connected to the cable and those connected to the device. The device konektormá štvorotvorovú prírubu.
1. Kábel centralizovanýkonektor
In a cable, the konektor is mechanically tightly connected to the end of the cable. Once the konektorje pripojený ku káblu, stáva sa z neho káblová zostava. RF inžinieri potom spoja každú časť podľa vlastných potrieb. Keď je potrebných iba niekoľko káblových zväzkov, sú cenovo dostupnejšie a rýchlejšie sa montujú samy; ale keď je potrebných veľa káblových zostáv, je lepšie kúpiť káblové zostavy.
2. Konektor
Cieľom každéhokonektor is the same, with minimum insertion loss. Although the insertion loss of the konektor is very small compared with the cable, the konektor does have an insertion loss, and there are many different types of konektors. Almost all konektor families have konektors suitable for cables and devices. As a general rule, the konektors of one group will not match the konektors of another group.The second reason is evolution. As the times change, konektor manufacturers often improve the connection according to actual needs, or reduce the insertion loss, or facilitate the use of the connection. Significant changes are made to an existing konektor type each time.
3. Adaptér
Kvôli týmto rôznymkonektorrodín, objavil sa zaujímavý jav. RF inžinieri sú nútení pripojiť kábel s jednýmkonektor to another cable or device with a different konektor family. This cannot be done. The adapter is that they are in step. Adapters, also called coaxial adapters, are short bilateral konektors. On one side is one type of konektor, and once is another type of konektor.
