Product Highlights & Features

1. Brand & Model: As a member of the Kinghelm brand, KH-2FK1-E-SM-101 FAKRA board-end antenna connector upholds the consistent high-quality standards of Kinghelm. Its unique design not only meets the specific mechanical and environmental requirements of the automotive industry but also demonstrates outstanding electrical performance.

2. High-Frequency Performance: This FAKRA board-end antenna connector supports a frequency range up to 6 GHz, far exceeding many traditional automotive RF connectors. This feature makes KH-2FK1-E-SM-101 an ideal choice for modern automotive communication systems, providing stable and high-speed data transmission for ADAS (Advanced Driver Assistance Systems), in-car entertainment systems, and telematics systems.

3. Excellent Electrical Performance: In terms of electrical performance, KH-2FK1-E-SM-101 excels. Its nominal impedance is 50 Ω, ensuring the continuity and efficiency of signal transmission. The Voltage Standing Wave Ratio (VSWR) remains low within the DC to 6 GHz range, particularly within the DC to 2 GHz range, where VSWR does not exceed 1.4 (corresponding to a return loss of 15.56 dB), effectively reducing signal reflection and loss, and improving communication quality.

4. Mechanical & Environmental Adaptability: The KH-2FK1-E-SM-101 FAKRA board-end antenna connector adopts an interface design compliant with DIN 72594-1 standards and meets the performance specifications of SAE/USCAR-2 and SAE/USCAR-17, ensuring its reliability and durability in automotive environments. Its insulator is made of LCP (Liquid Crystal Polymer) material, which offers excellent heat resistance, chemical stability, and mechanical strength, further enhancing the overall performance of the connector.

5. Durability & Environmental Testing: After rigorous durability testing, the KH-2FK1-E-SM-101 FAKRA board-end antenna connector still performs well under a rotation test of 25 cycles per minute. Additionally, the connector has passed extensive environmental testing, including temperature cycling and humidity testing, ensuring stable operation within a wide temperature range of -40°C to +105°C.

Applications

The KH-2FK1-E-SM-101 RF Green FAKRA board-end antenna connector is widely used in various RF communication systems in modern automobiles, including but not limited to:

lADAS Systems: Supporting data transmission for radars, cameras, and other sensors, enhancing driving safety and comfort.

lIn-Car Entertainment Systems: Providing high-speed, stable audio and video signal transmission, enhancing passengers' entertainment experience.

lTelematics Systems: Enabling real-time communication between vehicles, the internet, and service centers, providing services such as navigation and emergency assistance.
