Kathrein EMK 64 IEC compressieconnector (21210031)

With shielding effectiveness exceeding 100 dB and return loss better than 20 dB across 5–2400 MHz, this IEC male compression connector ensures clean, low-loss signal transfer for DVB-T, DVB-C, satellite, and broadband cable installations.

Overview

The Kathrein EMK 64 is a precision IEC compression connector engineered for 75-ohm coaxial cable. Its nickel-plated brass body and compression termination provide a secure, weather-resistant connection that maintains signal integrity in demanding RF environments.

What stands out

• Exceptional shielding: >100 dB from 30–1000 MHz prevents ingress and egress of interference.
• Low insertion loss: <0.1 dB attenuation keeps signal strength intact.
• Wide frequency coverage: 5–2400 MHz supports terrestrial, cable, and satellite bands.
• Compression design: requires a compression tool for a reliable, permanent termination.
• Compatible with cables having 6.4 mm outer diameter and inner conductor 0.5–1.1 mm.
