Fibre Optic Connectors and associated items
Radiall™ is considered one of Europe’s leading Fibre Optic companies, having developed many specialised connectors for unique & diverse military & commercial applications.
Radiall Fibre Optic Connectors
EC Connectors – (F715) EC is a Radiall proprietary connector designed for Telecom & CATV networks, with a plastic body and push-pull type. Its very low return loss makes EC also highly recommended for sensor applications. Available in multimode and single mode PC and APC configurations. Radiall’s proprietary EC product range is a revolutionary solution providing very high performance and easy to use connectors. Combining the advantages of angled, polished fibers and membrane usage (providing a non-physical contact), the EC connector has a very low reflection rate and is able to accommodate up to 100 cycles.

F-SMA Connectors – F-SMA is one of the first generation of fibre optic connectors. Established as a standard in the industry, it is now used in many applications, such as industrial and medical, in which the connector can be adapted with a large range of MultiMode fibres. They are designed for systems requiring reliable performance over short and medium ranges.
FC Connectors– (F729) FC connector is based on 2.5mm ceramic ferrule tech
nology with a threaded metallic body screw-on type. FC is mainly used for Telecom-Datacom applications and for measurement equipment. Available in multimode and singlemode PC & APC configurations. The FC connector is a fibre optic connector with a screw thread locking mechanism to withstand high-vibration environments.

MIL-PRF-29504 type contacts – (F722/F724) These contacts (termini) are designed per MIL-PRF-29504 for military and aerospace applications. Specific part numbers must be ordered to fit a specific circular or rectangular connector. Available in size 16 or size 12. MIL-PRF-29504 fibre optic termini were developed several decades ago and are described in several MIL standard documents. They have been designed to fit into standard electrical cavities within circular or rectangular multipin connectors and do not require specific inserts. However, standard electrical connectors are not optimised for optical connection with small core fibres and MIL-PRF-29504 fibre optic termini show lower optical performance than more recent designs, such as the LuxCis.

RFoF – RF over Fibre Optic
RF over Fibre (RFoF), sometimes called RF over Glass (RFoG), is a mature technology becoming increasingly popular across many industry sectors such as Defence, Satcom, Broadcast, Infrastructure, Telecommunication and Mining.
RFoF is well suited for applications where distance or other factors become problematic with traditional coaxial cable installs. RFoF is used to connect antennas to transmission and receiving equipment. Rojone and our US partner Optical Zonu can provide a wide range of solutions from day to day in building conversion to more complex demanding solutions challenges. With a frequency range suitable for transporting across all HF, VHF, UHF, L, S, C, X, Ku, K and Ka bands (10 MHz to 40 GHz).
Advantages
The transmission of RF and Microwave Signals via waveguides or coaxial cable suffers high insertion
loss a
nd susceptibility to interference (EMI). Single Mode RFoF transceivers provide an excellent alternative for this type of application. Fibre Optic transmission offers significant advantages for the reliable transport of RF signals in their native format over many optical networks and across a broad range of frequencies. For analogue type signals, especially at high frequencies, premium performance at high Spurious Free Dynamic Range (SFDR) is desirable.
- Less signal degradation per meter
- Higher signal carrying capacity/bandwidth
- Less costly per metre
- Lighter and thinner than traditional coaxial cable
- Free from electromagnetic interference (Poor weather does not affect signal)
- Lower transmitter launching power
Applications
- Cellular wireless
- Public safety
- Network sync
- Satellite earth stations
- Defence applications

LMR Bundled Cable
LMR Bundled Cable
Times Microwave Systems specialises in the design & manufacture of high performance flexible, Low Loss, standard coaxial M17 cable, for RF transmission from HF through to Microwave frequencies DC to 46GHz.
As the exclusive Australian Agent Rojone is pleased to announce the introduction of LMR® Bundled Cable this is a spiral configuration of multiple LMR®-400 or smaller LMR® cables under a common polyethylene outer jacket. This innovative design acts as the perfect feeder cable for applications requiring multiple runs, such as on towers or building top sites. A unique, patented grounding fixture grounds the outer shields of each cable and a rugged end cap seals the bundle to prevent moisture ingress at the break-out point.
LMR © Bundled Cable can be supplied as complete assembly with break outs and connectors on both ends, and as a single ended assembly (base can be trimmed and terminated after installation on tower), or as a raw cable and accessories along with easy to use tools. Pictorial instructions and installation videos are available to assist in the installation of the accessories.
Features and Benefits:
- Less Cable Runs
- Fewer Ground Kits and Cable Clamps to Install
- Reduced Labour and Material Costs
- Rip cord for easy removal of outer jacket
- Inner cables labelled with an identifier every six inches
Standard Cables Include:
- LMR-BC240-4
- LMR-BC300-12
- LMR-BC240-9
- LMR-BC400-7
- LMR-BC240-9-LW-75
- LMR-BC400-9
- LMR-BC-240-12
- LMR-BC400-9-DB
EC-BC Series End Cap Kits
Times Microwave Systems offers weather seal break out caps for a number of the LMR bundled cables. These kits consist of a hard ABS plastic split shell with stainless steel screws, a silicone rubber split cushion and a silicone rubber gasket. The split cushion is formed over the inner cables and the shell is then positioned over the transition so that the end of the outer jacket of the cable is roughly in the middle of the shell.
Watch the video below to see how to install the EC-BC Series End Cap Kit.

New High Performance & Robust BMR-Spring Board-to-Board Connectors
As the exclusive distributor of Radiall products, Rojone is proud to introduce the addition of new high-performance and robust BMR-Spring large misalignment board-to-board connectors to their extensive offering of cost-effective subminiature RF coaxial solutions.
Radiall BMR-Spring connectors can handle a minimum board-to-board or rack and panel distance tolerance of at least 0.078” (2 mm) with custom misalignment of 3 mm or more. It also features a 6 degree tilt radial travel. It has an operating frequency range of DC-8 GHz, a 1.1 max VSWR guaranteed up to 3 GHz, and it can handle up to 350 watts of power at 2.7 GHz.
The Radiall BMR-Spring adapter features a unique non slotted spherical interface for improved electrical performance, high vibration and shock resistance, and an 80dB of shielding up to 3 GHz. A self-alignment mechanism makes the BMR-Spring particularly ruggedized for blind-mate applications. The spring-loaded adapters are symmetrical to avoid any assembly issues.
A typical BMR-Spring board-to-board system is made of three parts – slide-on receptacle, symmetrical adapter and snap-on receptacle. Custom configurations are also available for board-to-board, module-to-module, or rack and panel applications.
For further information on the BMR-Spring system, visit www.radiall.com or contact Rojone.
