FAKRA
The latest generation of FAKRA connectors, generation 2.0, features an upgraded SMB connector design with stamped and formed construction for fully automated cable termination. The connectors feature removable connector housings for field replacement, if necessary, and are mechanically keyed and color-coded to prevent mis-mating on the production line. This generation of USCAR and FAKRA 2 compatible connectors is compatible with all previous FAKRA products.
Embedded within a plastic housing which features multiple color codes for easy identification and unique keying to prevent mis-mating, FAKRA connectors are designed to perform up to 3 GHz and meet the particular mechanical and environmental requirements of the automotive industry.
