What is a SHV Type RF Connector

Summary

SHV (Safe High Voltage) type rf connectors are coaxial connectors for high-voltage equipment with a rated voltage of up to 3.5 kV and withstand voltage of up to 5 kV/min. It can handle even higher voltages than the MHV type rf connector. The connector features a shape in which the connector insulator protrudes from the body. It has a mating part similar to BNC connectors but is incompatible with BNC and MHV type rf connectors.

SHV Type RF Connector Features

compatible with high voltage

SHV (Safe High Voltage) type rf connectors are coaxial connectors for high-voltage equipment with a rated voltage of up to 3.5 kV and withstand voltage of up to 5 kV/min.

Coupling Method

The Bayonet lock method is an easy connection method that does not rely on threading and can be easily connected and disconnected. Insert the plug into the jack by aligning it with the guide on the jack side, and rotate the ring slightly to lock it in place, and the internal spring force will hold it firmly in place. It can be quickly removed by turning it slightly in the opposite direction, but since it is secured to the spring by a screw, it cannot be pulled out simply by pulling on the cable.

SHV Type RF Connector FAQ

QCan SHV be mated with BNC and MHV connectors?

A

Although SHV are bayonet lock type connectors, they are not compatible with BNC or MHV connectors. The insulator of the SHV connector protrudes from the body and so cannot be mated.
