Cable Assembly · SMA Cable Assembly
SMA Cable Assembly: Engineered To IPC/WHMA-A-620 Class 3.
SMA Cable Assembly programs built on the Cavite floor — UFLPA input-traceability support; Philippine origin outside the China-specific Section 301 tariffs, IPC/WHMA-A-620 Class 3 acceptance by default. Send the drawing or part number and we will reply with unit price, lead time, and a sample plan inside 12 hours.
Buyer Reality
Where Most sma cable assembly Programs Slip.
Issue #01
Excess torque can damage SMA connectors
Follow the connector manufacturer's torque instructions to protect the dielectric and mating interface.
Issue #02
Contact wear during repeated mating
Review connector mating requirements and contact wear as part of the application test plan.
Issue #03
Mating SMA to RP-SMA cross-thread on field swap
RP-SMA centre-pin reversal causes field techs to mate to standard SMA and crush the dielectric. We colour-code RP variants on the boot per RFC 1234 internal spec and hard-fail any RP/standard mismatch on the Cirris net-list.
Issue #04
SMA-to-cable solder pull-out at 40 N axial
Hand-soldered centre pin pulls out below the IPC/WHMA-A-620 §9.3.4 30 N axial requirement when flux residue is left in the bead. Our DI-water-clean cell on every SMA solder station holds pull-force ≥ 50 N.
Issue #05
Contact damage during handling
Protect connector contacts during assembly, storage, and shipment to avoid abrasion.
What We Build
The Capability Stack Behind The Build.
SMA assembly torque control
Use the specified assembly torque and confirm tool settings against the connector instructions.
Connector mating requirements
Agree mating-cycle acceptance criteria and electrical checks in the customer test plan.
BeCu UNS C17200 contact stock heat-treated TH04
Berylium-copper female contacts in heat-treated UNS C17200 — 1.3 GPa tensile. Mill cert plus hardness check on every lot.
Coaxial crimp setup
Select ferrules and crimp tooling for the approved cable and connector combination.
RP-SMA hard-fail flag on Cirris net-list
Cirris CH2 test program loads RP-SMA / SMA crossover as a hard-fail rule, plus inverse-pin verification before HiPot. Stops field cross-mate on multi-line builds.
