Fakra Connector

Fakra Connector is a high performance radio frequency (RF) connector designed specifically for automotive applications. Developed by Fakra (Fachkreis Automobil) and widely used in automotive equipment. With its solid structure, stable performance and strong compatibility, it is the standard connector choice in vehicle-mounted equipment. Applications:
.In-car navigation and infotainment systems: GPS modules, satellite radio, AM/FM antennas.
.Vehicle communication and Internet: used to connect to the vehicle's LTE or 5G communication module.
.Safety and driver assistance systems: rearview camera, radar, in-car communication antenna.
.Other automotive electronics applications: In-car Wi-Fi hotspot, remote key, tire pressure monitoring (TPMS).

Features:
.Designed for automotive applications: It can provide stable RF signal transmission in harsh automotive environments. High temperature resistance, vibration resistance and corrosion resistance.
.High-frequency performance: Supports high-frequency applications with a frequency range up to 6 GHz.
.Embedded plastic housing: Each connector has a colored plastic housing to easily distinguish different functions (such as GPS, antenna). The shell has waterproof and dustproof protection functions.
.Quick installation design: Fakra adopts a quick snap-on mechanism, which is convenient for quick insertion and removal during production and maintenance.
.Compatible with Standard RF Connectors: The internal core is compatible with SMB connectors and can be used with standard RF equipment.

The plastic shell of the Fakra connector is available in 13 colors, each color corresponds to a different application to avoid confusion and mis-insertion.
Common colors and uses:
