Available with or without IP67, IP68 and IP69K protection, GradConn's coaxial cable assemblies are the perfect solution for wireless markets such as GSM, GPS & WiFi.
With the rise of IoT, Smart City & homes, Industry 4.0, advance telematics and much more, GradConn products play an increasingly important role across a variety of protocols and demanding applications.
100% tested for IP67, IP68 & IP69K Gradconn are the “go to” manufacturer for harsh environment reliability at a cost effective price.
Nautilus Isolated SMA and TNC assemblies are designed for applications requiring isolation across multiple RF channels as well as IP67 ingress protection.
Designed to withstand extremely harsh environments and high pressure/high temperature washdown, Nautilus cable assemblies with stainless steel SMA or TNC bulkhead connectors offer peak performance against corrosion.
PCB mounted RF connectors are for applications where the comms module is not used or does not include an RF interface connector.
If your application also needs Ingress Protection, then our Nautilus SMA & TNC Jack products are ideal.
