What Is a Flange?
A flange is a mechanical feature that extends outward from a component, typically used for mounting, alignment, or reinforcement.
It often has holes for bolts or screws, allowing the component to be securely fixed to a surface or panel.
In connectors, flanges are commonly used to attach connectors to panels or equipment.
They also help maintain alignment and provide mechanical stability.
Flanges in RF and Coaxial Systems
In RF and coaxial systems, flanges are used to mount connectors onto panels or equipment enclosures.
They are commonly found in designs such as 2-hole or 4-hole flange connectors.
Flanged connectors provide strong mechanical fixation and help maintain consistent grounding.
Proper installation ensures stable performance and reliable long-term operation.
