IEC 61169-23:2025

IEC 61169-23:2025, which is a sectional specification (SS), provides information and rules for the preparation of detail specifications (DS) for pin and socket connector for use with 3,5 mm rigid precision coaxial lines with inner diameter of outer conductor 3,5 mm (0,137 8 in).
This document specifies mating face dimensions for high performance connectors – grade 1, dimensional details of standard test connectors – grade 0, gauging information and tests selected from IEC 61169-1, applicable to all detail specifications relating to series 3,5 mm RF connectors.
This document indicates recommended performance characteristics to be considered when writing a detail specification and it covers test schedules and inspection requirements for assessment levels M and H.
These connectors are constructed so as to affix on the 50 ?, 3,5 mm rigid precision coaxial line described in IEC 60457-5, and to provide low reflection to 34 GHz. These connectors can be intermated with SMA (IEC 61169-15) and 2,92 mm (IEC 61169-35) connectors.
