Miniature coaxial high-voltage connectors are also known as MHV connectors. When mated, they have a test voltage of 5 kV rms and an operating voltage of up to 1.6 kV rms. They are also designed for applications up to 300 MHz.
MHV-connectors are based on the construction of BNC connectors, but they have protrusive insulators, what leads to a slight protection against contact of conductors under voltage in an uncoupled condition
For a maximum contact protection of uncoupled connectors, the connector series SHV is recommended.
Our complete MHV range is available via our online shop.
To ensure greater safety, we offer SHV high-voltage connectors (SHV = Safe High Voltage) in addition to MHV. The inner conductor contacts are backspaced in order to exclude the contact of conductors under voltage when unconnected. When connecting, the outer contacts touch each other before the inner contacts.
SHV-Connectors are suitable for all applications up to 5 kV DC or 3.5 eff. These connectors are particularly used for nuclear devices as well as for testing and measuring devices. All given values are valid in connected and disconnected condition
Our complete SHV range is available via our online shop.
Do you need pre-assembled high-voltage cables with MHV or SHV connectors according to your individual specifications? In our online cable configurator, you can assemble your desired cable according to your requirements under the section “High-voltage cables”. Please note that our high-voltage connectors are also compatible with some regular 50 Ohm cables. Simply select the “Coaxial cable 50 Ohm” category.
They can be used more than once and are therefore perfect for storing and transporting different high-quality cable assemblies or for protecting our Breakout boxes.
Durable protection against dust and protection – cover caps
Now discover another way to protect your connectors from external influences with our cover caps. In industry, these are mainly used to shield dust and moisture and are therefore an ideal cover for unused connectors, e.g. in our breakout box with multiple connections.
Most caps are made of metal and have a built-in seal to prevent moisture ingress. You can always find more information in the corresponding data sheet of the cap.
For convenient handling, our cover caps are also optionally available with chains so that they do not get lost when not in use. Every cover cap in our range is waterproof according to IP67 or IP54.
Protect your cable assemblies with our new caps now!
You can choose between assemblies, which are assembled exclusively with brands of well-known manufacturers, and assemblies by manufacturers, who are less well-known. This does not mean, that the quality of the connectors and the resulting cable assemblies are worse or worth less. But it might be an option for especially price-sensitive applications, as the assemblies are usually between 2 to 5 € more favourable than goods of brand manufacturers.
Example: BNC cable assembly by Telegärtner or by our alternative manufacturer Price difference: 2.80 €
We check every batch of the connectors on technical parameters and pay close attention to a flawless production. Thus you can be sure, that even the most favourable cable connection is of very high quality.
Please note, that we are not saving on the cable! Even the favourable cables are manufactured with lines of well-known brand manufacturers.
Therefore, the quality of our products continues to be in our focus.
You won’t notice the difference in the technical/qualitative sector, but rather in the price segment.
With a connector of a less well-known manufacturer, the manufacturing costs are significantly lower
