2-87496-6

TE Connectivity AMP Connectors's 2-87496-6 delivers groundbreaking performance in Rectangular Connectors - Adapters for terahertz research applications. This adapter features photonic bandgap structures and sub-wavelength patterning for minimal dispersion across 0.1-10THz frequency ranges.The Plug, Male Pins interface incorporates metamaterial-based impedance matching that maintains <1.2 VSWR across the entire operational bandwidth for time-domain spectroscopy systems.Supporting Plug, Male Pins conversion, this adapter enables seamless transition between rectangular waveguides and planar transmission lines with <0.1dB insertion loss at 5THz.Engineered with 60 photoconductive switch positions, the contact array provides precise synchronization for optical rectification systems in pump-probe experiments.The 0.100" (2.54mm) pitch design utilizes silicon micromachining to create anti-resonant structures that prevent mode mixing in multi-channel heterodyne detection arrays.The 2 row configuration provides isolated terahertz beam paths while maintaining phase coherence across all channels in imaging arrays.With 0.100" (2.54mm) row spacing, the adapter prevents near-field coupling between adjacent channels while allowing proper beam waist formation in focused terahertz systems.Designed for Panel Mount, Flange installation, this adapter features laser-aligned kinematic mounting for precise optical alignment in terahertz time-domain spectrometers.
