Schematic symbols for male and female connector pins. In electrical and mechanical trades and manufacturing, each half of a pair of mating connectors or fasteners is conventionally designated as male or female, [1] a distinction referred to as its gender. [2] The female connector is generally a receptacle that receives and holds the male connector.
The TNCA connector is a variant of the TNC connector specified in MIL-STD-348 [1] designed to provide an air gap in the dielectric region between the male and female connectors. The female TNCA connector is nearly identically to the standard TNC female connector, while the male TNCA connector provides the air cavity differentiating it from a ...
A double DIN 1.6/5.6 bulkhead jack connector, crimp type, for 75 Ω coaxial cable A Type N connector (male), right-angled solder-type for semi-rigid coaxial cable with a diameter of 0.141-inch. 4.1-9.5 connector, standardized as DIN 47231 (in 1974) and IEC 60169-11 (in 1977) 4.3-10 connector, formerly known as DIN 4.3/10, now standardized as ...
The role of male and female connectors is opposite to traditional usage in other designs of power connector - the Powerlock source connector has a male pin and the drain connector has a female receptacle. This does not however compromise safety because the gap between the plastic insulating cap on the male pin of the source connector and the ...
Some extended performance versions are rated to 10 GHz. The normally free part (a.k.a. plug) of a SMC connector that has a socket for the centre contact are the female connectors. The normally fixed part (a.k.a. jack) SMC connectors that has a pin for the centre contact are the male connectors. This is the reverse of most RF connectors.
Some examples of blind mate RF interfaces include BMA (OSP), BMMA (OSSP), SMP, SMPM, SMPS, and Planar Crown connectors. Certain styles of blind mate RF connectors feature a detent or undercut to allow for the mating connector to snap into, improving retention. These styles are typically used when the mate is a cable connector and might see a ...
A MIL-DTL-38999 circular connector plated with a nickel–teflon composite. Left: plug (male) type connector; Right: receptacle (female) type connector) Electrical or fiber-optic connectors used by U.S. Department of Defense were originally developed in the 1930s for severe aeronautical and tactical service applications, and the Type "AN" series set the standard for modern military circular ...
A gender changer is a hardware device placed between two cable connectors of the same type and gender. An example is a cable connector shell with either two female or two male connectors on it (male-to-male or female-to-female), used to correct the mismatches that result when interconnecting two devices or cables with the same gender of connector.
