Fakra is a standard developed by the DIN group for RF connectors used in “Road Vehicle” applications. RF
connectors are fitted with a color coded, and polarized diecast housing.
Fakra Connectors are available in 1, 2 and 3 way right-angle PCB versions. They are ideally suited for cir-
cuit miniaturization and are offered in a wide range of configurations which includes, black (A), natural (B),
blue (C), violet (D), beige (I).
The desirable feature of the new 50 ohm Fakra connector is its consistant low mating and unmating forces,
extremely low VSWR and insertion loss (IL) values up to 4 GHz.
