Product Overview

Mini-Circuits’ E67 Model Series are ultra-wideband precision rugged instrumentation cables specially designed for use
with 67 GHz VNA equipment in test environments. The cables provide excellent VSWR and very low insertion loss overits entire frequency range. 1.85mm straight to1.85mm connector configuration provides direct connection from the portsof a 67 GHz VNA to 1.85mm connectorized devices without the need for adapters. These cables are available in a varietyof lengths.

Key Features
FeatureAdvantages

DC-67 GHz operation designed for use withVector Network Analyzers (VNA)

Covers a wide range of test applications; rugged 1.85mm connector interfaces directly with VNA without
the need for an adapter for improved VSWR performance and lower cost.

Stainless Steel Connectors

Stainless Steel Connectors maintains integrity of the cable-connector interface improving the reliability
and extending life of use.

Anti-Torque Component

Nut component feature on connector used to fit a torque wrench to minimize stress on connectors andprevent breakage

Proper Cable Connection Using Anti-Torque Nut
Mini-Circuits E67 Series interconnect cables are constructed with an anti-torque nut
adjacent to the connector coupling nut. When used properly, this feature prevents possible
damage to the cable due to torqueing and twisting when tightening the cable connector.
To properly tighten the cable connector:
Anti-Torque Nut1) The cable connector includes acoupling nut which rotates to fasten
the connector, and an anti-torque nut,
which is fixed to prevent the cablefrom twisting during connection.

Coupling Nut2) To properly tighten the cable, use astandard 1/4-inch open end wrench
to brace the anti-torque nut.

HoldSteadyRotate
Clockwise3) Using a 5/16-inch open end wrench,rotate the coupling nut clockwise totighten the cable connector.

NOTE: Mini-Circuits recommends using a 5/16-inch open end wrench calibrated to 8 inchpounds maximum torque to prevent damage due to over-torqueing the connector.
