Coaxial cable

As the name suggests, it is a connector in the form of overlapping cylinders on the same axis, and the basic structure is that the central cylinder serves as the signal contact, and the outer cylinder is used as the ground or signal return path. This type of connector has been widely used for high-frequency transmission for a long time because it has excellent characteristic impedance characteristics because the electric field is closed and stabilized due to its structure. For the same reason, it also has excellent noise resistance. There are mainly two characteristic impedances, 50Ω system and 75Ω system, and many standard products are specified in various standards. On the other hand, there are also cost issues, and their use is sometimes restricted due to the fact that they are structurally inflexible. At the same time that we started handling FAKRA, which is a coaxial connector for automotive use, we are also developing Floating terminals that have a non-coaxial structure but have considerable performance, and are expanding to camera solutions.
