KH-SSMAJW-SSMAK-RG1.37-60MM RF Cable Assembly: Ideal for High-Frequency Connections in Tight Spaces
2026-09-18 231
In high-frequency electronic equipment, wireless communication modules, and various RF systems, cables may be relatively small components, but they play an important role in stable signal transmission and efficient internal device layout. This is especially true for compact electronic devices, where conventional RF cables with larger dimensions can be limited by installation space, bending radius, and connector orientation. For applications that require short-distance, high-frequency signal transmission within a confined space, a compact RF coaxial cable with flexible connector configurations can make equipment design and assembly more convenient. Kinghelm KH-SSMAJW-SSMAK-RG1.37-60MM Product Image 1. Product Specifications Brand: Kinghelm Model: KH-SSMAJW-SSMAK-RG1.37-60MM Product Type: RF Coaxial Cable Cable Length: 60 mm Coaxial Cable: RG1.37 black coaxial cable Cable Outer Diameter: Approx. 1.3 mm One-End Connector: SSMA female, female contact (socket), straight type, gold-plated Other-End Connector: SSMA male, male contact (pin), right-angle type, gold-plated Heat-Shrink Tubing: OD 2.5 × 1.5 mm Tubing Color: Black Rated Voltage: 300 V Packaging: Bag 2. 60 mm Compact Design for Space-Constrained Connections The Kinghelm KH-SSMAJW-SSMAK-RG1.37-60MM RF coaxial cable is designed for compact connection applications. With an overall length of only 60 mm, it uses RG1.37 black coaxial cable and features an SSMA right-angle male connector on one end and an SSMA female straight connector on the other, resulting in a compact and space-efficient assembly. In wireless communication equipment, RF modules, test modules, embedded electronic devices, and similar products, internal installation space is often limited, while the distance between interfaces may be relatively short. Excessively long cables can make routing more difficult and may require additional looping, securing, or cable management. The 60 mm cable length is well suited to short-distance connections and allows interfaces within a device to be connected directly according to their physical positions, helping simplify assembly and cable routing. For electronic equipment designed with miniaturization and modularity in mind, a compact cable assembly can also reduce interference with surrounding components and occupy less valuable internal space. 3. SSMA Right-Angle Male and Straight Female Connectors for Flexible Installation One of the key features of this product is its combination of two different SSMA connector configurations. One end is an SSMA male right-angle connector with a male pin, while the other end is an SSMA female straight connector with a female contact. Both connectors feature gold-plated contacts. The right-angle design changes the direction in which the cable exits the connector. When space around an interface is limited, or when the cable needs to be routed along the edge of a device or parallel to a PCB, a right-angle connector can help reduce the space required for cable routing and provide greater installation flexibility. The other end uses a straight SSMA female connector for connection to a corresponding SSMA male interface. The male-to-female configuration allows the cable to be used for specific RF interconnection requirements between compatible interfaces. For R&D engineers, electronics engineers, and production technicians, selecting an appropriate connector configuration can help simplify internal RF cable routing and facilitate connections between modules. 4. RG1.37 Coaxial Cable for Compact High-Frequency Connections The cable assembly uses RG1.37 black coaxial cable with an outer diameter of approximately 1.3 mm. Compared with larger-diameter coaxial cables, the RG1.37 format provides a more compact solution for applications where internal installation space is limited. A coaxial cable typically consists of an inner conductor, dielectric insulation, and an outer shielding structure, forming a controlled transmission path for RF and high-frequency signals. Coaxial interconnection is widely used in RF modules, wireless communication equipment, and other high-frequency electronic systems. For a short 60 mm connection, the small-diameter RG1.37 cable helps minimize the physical footprint of the cable assembly while providing a practical solution for internal RF interconnection. 5. Gold-Plated Connectors for RF Interconnection Applications Both connectors are gold-plated. The SSMA female connector features a straight configuration with a socket contact, while the SSMA male connector features a right-angle configuration with a male pin. As important components in an RF signal path, connectors must provide reliable mechanical mating and stable electrical contact. Gold-plated contact surfaces are commonly used in electronic connectors to support reliable contact performance and durability in appropriate applications. The combination of SSMA connectors, RG1.37 coaxial cable, and a 60 mm overall length gives this cable assembly a compact form factor that is well suited to short-distance RF interconnections in space-constrained electronic equipment. 6. Black Heat-Shrink Tubing for Added Protection The cable assembly is fitted with OD 2.5 × 1.5 mm black heat-shrink tubing. The heat-shrink tubing is primarily applied around the transition area between the cable and connector, providing additional protection and helping reinforce the cable-to-connector interface. For electronic equipment that requires installation, adjustment, or maintenance, maintaining the structural integrity of the transition area between the coaxial cable and connector is important for reliable cable management. The black heat-shrink tubing matches the black RG1.37 coaxial cable, giving the assembly a clean and consistent appearance. Its compact size and black finish also make it convenient for organized internal cable routing. 7. 300 V Rated Voltage for Applicable Equipment Connections This model is specified with a rated voltage of 300 V. When selecting a cable for a particular application, the actual operating voltage, frequency, power level, interface specifications, and other system requirements should be considered together. The rated voltage alone should not be used to determine whether the cable is suitable for a specific RF system. For RF equipment, connector type, cable specification, connector configuration, installation dimensions, and other mechanical and electrical parameters are also important considerations. Engineers should therefore evaluate the complete system requirements when designing an RF interconnection solution. Kinghelm KH-SSMAJW-SSMAK-RG1.37-60MM Datasheet 8.

According to the product specifications, it is a FAKRA purple D-code female-to-female RF cable assembly using RG174 coaxial cable, with a cable length of 350 mm. Both ends are equipped with FAKRA female connectors with female center contacts. The connector housings are purple or purplish-red and use D-code mechanical keying. The product is packaged in bags, with a gross weight of approximately 12.95 g. For customers requiring volume purchasing, maintenance replacement, or sample testing, clearly defined specifications such as these make product selection and identification more convenient. 2. Structure and Appearance Design Both ends of this cable assembly use FAKRA female connectors with female center contacts. The connector housings are purple or purplish-red and feature D-code keying. FAKRA connectors are widely used in automotive RF applications. One of their key advantages is their color coding and mechanical keying system. Different codes correspond to different colors and mechanical key positions, helping to prevent incorrect connections. D-code connectors are commonly identified by a purple or purplish-red housing. Therefore, users can quickly identify the connector coding type through the color of the housing. The female connector design allows the cable assembly to mate with corresponding FAKRA male connectors, making it suitable for connecting, extending, or routing RF signals between two male-ended interfaces. The cable itself uses RG174 coaxial cable with a black outer jacket and an outer diameter of approximately 2.8 mm. RG174 coaxial cable is flexible, compact in diameter, and easy to bend and route. It is particularly suitable for installation in confined spaces inside vehicles, test fixtures, or internal equipment modules. Compared with thicker coaxial cables, RG174 offers greater flexibility and weight advantages. Black heat-shrink tubing is also used at the cable-to-connector transition areas. The tubing specification is OD: 3.5 × 15 mm. The heat-shrink tubing provides insulation, dust protection, resistance to light pulling forces, and additional bend protection, improving the mechanical reliability of the connection area. 3. Key Specification Analysis According to the available specifications, the cable length is 350 mm, and the rated voltage is 300 V. A 350 mm cable is considered a relatively short RF connection length and is suitable for interconnecting devices located close to each other. Typical examples include connections between vehicle head units and antenna modules, RF modules and interface panels, or test equipment and fixtures. A shorter cable length can help reduce signal attenuation while making cable management easier in compact installation spaces. The 300 V rated voltage indicates that the insulation capability of the cable assembly can meet the general requirements of low-voltage electronic equipment and automotive RF systems. RG174 coaxial cable typically has a characteristic impedance of 50 ohms, which is a common impedance standard in RF systems. In actual applications, electrical performance parameters such as insertion loss, voltage standing wave ratio (VSWR), and operating frequency range may be affected by connector manufacturing quality, cable material, assembly accuracy, and the operating environment. Therefore, for high-frequency or high-reliability applications, users are recommended to refer to the actual product datasheet or factory test data. The gross weight of the product is approximately 12.95 g, and it is supplied in bag packaging, making it lightweight and convenient for storage, distribution, and individual use. 4. FAKRA D-Code Keying and the Importance of Mis-Mating Prevention The coding system of FAKRA connectors is one of the major reasons they are widely used in automotive applications. Through different colors and mechanical keying structures, FAKRA connectors can be used to distinguish different RF signal systems, such as: Radio antennas GPS and navigation systems Cellular communications Automotive cameras Wi-Fi Bluetooth Other automotive RF communication systems The purple or purplish-red D-code housing not only provides easy visual identification but also helps reduce the risk of incorrect connections during installation. For maintenance personnel and installers, once the equipment-side connector is confirmed to use D-code keying, a corresponding FAKRA cable assembly can be selected to improve installation efficiency and reduce connection errors. FAKRA connectors typically use a locking mechanism. Users can usually feel a clear locking engagement after the connector is properly inserted. When disconnecting the connector, the release latch should be pressed before removal. Excessive pulling on the cable should be avoided. Although the female connector and female center-contact design is suitable for repeated mating cycles, users should still keep the connector interfaces clean and avoid contamination by dust, oil, moisture, or metal particles. 5. Advantages and Application Limits of RG174 Coaxial Cable RG174 is a commonly used flexible coaxial cable featuring a small diameter, low weight, and a relatively small bending radius, making it suitable for high-density cable routing. Its black outer jacket provides a certain degree of resistance to wear and contamination. With an outer diameter of approximately 2.8 mm, it can also be routed through narrow openings, cable channels, and compact installation spaces. The relatively short 350 mm cable length makes this product practical for applications such as automotive antennas, RF modules, test fixtures, and laboratory module interconnections. However, because RG174 has a relatively small cable diameter, its high-frequency attenuation is generally higher than that of thicker and lower-loss coaxial cables. Therefore, when the application involves very high operating frequencies, long transmission distances, or strict signal-loss requirements, users should evaluate whether a lower-loss coaxial cable is more suitable. For short-distance connections such as 350 mm, RG174 can still provide practical and stable performance in many automotive RF, navigation, radio, camera, and general wireless communication applications. 6. Heat-Shrink Tubing and Connection Reliability The cable assembly uses black heat-shrink tubing at the connector tail, with a specification of OD: 3.5 × 15 mm. After heating, the tubing tightly covers the cable-to-connector transition area. This helps reduce cable damage caused by repeated bending or pulling and can also provide a certain degree of dust protection, moisture resistance, and electrical insulation. For automotive environments involving vibration and movement, this protective design can help improve the service life and mechanical reliability of the cable assembly. During installation, excessive heating of the heat-shrink tubing should be avoided to prevent damage to the cable jacket or internal connector structure. 7. Typical Application Scenarios The Kinghelm KH-FAKRADK-FAKRADK-RG174-350MM can be used in a variety of RF interconnection applications, including: Automotive radio antenna extensions GPS/BeiDou antenna connections T-Box communication modules Vehicle infotainment head units Automotive camera signal connections V2X communication modules Wireless communication equipment RF test fixtures Laboratory module interconnections Because both ends use FAKRA female connectors, the cable assembly is typically used to connect two FAKRA male interfaces or to provide short-distance signal extension and interconnection. If the equipment interface itself uses a female connector, a suitable male adapter or an alternative connector configuration may be required. 8. Selection and Installation Recommendations When selecting this product, users should confirm the following key points: Whether the interface requires a FAKRA female connector with a female center contact. Whether the required mechanical coding is D-code with a purple or purplish-red housing. Whether RG174 coaxial cable is suitable for the application. Whether a cable length of 350 mm meets the installation requirements. Whether the 300 V rated voltage meets the system requirements. Whether the installation space is suitable for the approximately 2.8 mm cable diameter and the 3.5 × 15 mm heat-shrink protection area. During installation, sharp bends should be avoided and an appropriate bending radius should be maintained. When mating or disconnecting the connectors, users should align the mechanical keying correctly and operate the locking mechanism properly. Forced rotation, excessive side loading, or pulling directly on the cable should be avoided. Kinghelm KH-FAKRADK-FAKRADK-RG174-350MM Datasheet 9.

Core Technology: DPDT Configuration and Latching Mechanism One of the most important features of the KH-PB-22E60 is the combination of its Double Pole Double Throw (DPDT) circuit configuration and latching mechanism. 1. What Is DPDT? A six-pin latching switch is essentially a Double Pole Double Throw (DPDT) switch. The KH-PB-22E60 has two rows of three pins each. The center pin in each row serves as the common terminal (COM), while the two outer pins correspond to the normally open (NO) and normally closed (NC) contacts, respectively. The two rows form two completely independent Single Pole Double Throw (SPDT) switch circuits. The key advantage of a DPDT configuration is its ability to control two independent circuits simultaneously. Unlike a conventional Single Pole Single Throw (SPST) switch, which simply controls the on/off state of one circuit, a DPDT switch can switch two circuits between different connection states at the same time. This makes the KH-PB-22E60 particularly useful for applications such as direction switching, forward/reverse motor control, and redundant power switching. 2. How the Latching Mechanism Works "Latching" means that after the switch is pressed, its internal mechanical structure keeps it in the selected position even after the button is released. Pressing the button again releases the latch and changes the switch to the other state. This Push-On/Push-Off operating mechanism—press once to lock and press again to unlock—is particularly suitable for applications such as main power switches and operating-mode selection switches. 4. Wide Range of Applications With the combined advantages of a DPDT configuration and a latching mechanism, the KH-PB-22E60 can be used in a wide range of applications, including: Main Power Switches: It can be used as a main power switch for electronic equipment and combined with a DC power jack to provide convenient one-touch power control. Motor Forward/Reverse Control: The DPDT configuration is naturally suited to polarity-reversal and forward/reverse control of motors. Lighting Control and Mode Selection: It can be used in lighting control circuits or for switching between different operating modes. Industrial Controls and Test & Measurement Equipment: Applications include manual mode selection for small PLC modules, status resetting for sensor nodes, range-lock functions on multimeters, and trigger-mode selection on oscilloscopes. Smart Home and Consumer Electronics: It can be used for locking operating levels on humidifiers, switching brightness modes on small lamps, and similar applications. Automotive Electronics and DIY Projects: Its six-pin DPDT configuration is suitable for applications requiring independent control of positive and negative lines, indicator-light circuits, or dual-channel signal isolation. Examples include centralized power control for automotive equipment, DIY power boxes, and main control panels for 3D printers. 5. Design and Selection Considerations For hardware engineers selecting the KH-PB-22E60 for PCB designs, the following factors should be considered: Pin Identification:The center pin in each row is the common terminal (COM), while the two outer pins serve as the normally open (NO) and normally closed (NC) contacts. The two rows are completely independent switch circuits and are not electrically connected unless they are connected together on the PCB. Mounting Method:The KH-PB-22E60 uses through-hole mounting and PC terminals, making it suitable for through-hole PCB soldering. Compared with surface-mount components, through-hole switches offer secure mechanical mounting and a straightforward structure. They are particularly suitable for prototype development, hand soldering, small-batch production, and conventional through-hole assembly processes. Electrical Performance:As a low-voltage, low-current control switch, the KH-PB-22E60 can typically support rated voltages ranging from DC 12 V to 50 V and contact currents of up to 500 mA among products in the same series. This makes it suitable for most low-voltage control circuits. Kinghelm KH-PB-22E60 Datasheet 6. Conclusion With its compact 5.8 × 5.8 mm footprint, DPDT configuration, reliable latching mechanism, and through-hole PC terminals, the Kinghelm KH-PB-22E60 six-pin latching push-button switch provides precise control of two independent circuits within a limited space.
