Solderless Vertical Launch Connectors Advantage & Disadvantage

Sep 18, 2021

Since 5G will be in commercial use next year, more and more products require higher performance. Products are more precise, tiny, and convenient. That's why we designed these solderless PCB connectors.

Now, we have designed/manufactured the full series of these vertical launch connectors (DC to 67 GHz). And there are two versions for selection, standard (the left one of below picture) and tunnel(the right one of below picture) type. The difference between them is the mated PCB has less/more space for Layout/prototype. It depends on your application. While their performance does not have much difference.

About their advantage as following:

1) Due to those are precision connectors, mated PCBs also are high performance. In other words, if the connectors do not be soldered well, those expensive PCBs will be damaged. But if you choose solderless ones, you can install or remove them easily and will not affect PCBs. They are fixed with screws (accessories are free to supply). Therefore it is more affordable,convenient and reusable.

2) Those connectors are in small size. And as its vertical launch placement, they can be assembled on the PCB with a small pitch. It is about 15mm. It can help you to make your products smarter. Like below pictures.


3) The material is passivated stainless steel outer conductors and gold-plated beryllium copper center contacts.

The disadvantage is they are less stable than soldered items. As those connectors are installed with screws, they usually used in the testing application. But if you want the high performance soldered connectors. We also have them. Please visit below link for your reference. http://www.hualinkrf.com/index.php?
