L-Com„¢s Swivel Joint Adapter LCAD1404 is the SMA Male to SMA Female Swivel Joint, rated to 6 GHz, VSWR 1.3, part of our full line of RF components. The swivel joints are used to transfer RF signals between stationary and movable parts of a communications system, commonly used in commercial and military radar, land-mobile-radio communications, and anti-missile defense applications.
These SMA Male to SMA Female swivel joint adapters boast a compact design, excellent VSWR of 1.3:1, low insertion loss and minimal variation of RF performance during rotation. When rotating the LCAD1404 around the center axis, the performance specifications vary minimally, with a phase rotational effect (WOW)* of ?0.5°, VSWR WOW of ?0.03, and Insertion Loss of ?0.03 dB.
The rotary joint LCAD1404 from L-Com, with a maximum frequency of 6 GHz, can be rotated through the center axis in 360 degrees to allow for rotating equipment to be installed to stationary equipment.
*WOW is the change in performance of a specification with rotation around an axis, calculated as the difference between the minimum and maximum values observed in one 360° rotation around that axis.
