The NEX10® is a new small coaxial connector system, offering low PIM and ruggedized design in a compact size, to meet the upcoming space reduction requirements of small cells. As the telecommunications industry moves towards the small cell approach, the radio and antenna become smaller and ask for a small sized, high performing coaxial RF connector. The highlights of the new connector system are its excellent PIM stability of -166 dBc, flexibility of coupling mechanism (quick lock and screw) and ruggedized design in a compact size with flange height of 12.7 mm to suit the small cell radio and antenna size requirements.
