- Sorry if this question do not belong her but I want to know how do you determine connector losses on 23cm? I have the losses for Andrew LD 4-50A but what about the connectors? And if I have to use a

- Hi Manius, The insertion loss of a good N connector is equal to the square root of F (in GHz) times a constant (K). The constant for a single N connector is 0.5. Therefore, at 23 CM (1.3 GHz) the los

- Joe, Sorry to "nit pick", but if your formula is correct and the constant is 0.5, shouldn't the loss be 0.57dB? It makes a big difference if you have several connectors in the chain. 73, Steve G3TXQ

- I suspect that 0.5 is an approximation (i.e. it's probably not 0.50000), and expression in the first place is based on an assumption that the loss is entirely due to ohmic losses (probably reasonable

- That data (0.15 dB @ 10 GHz) implies that the K in Joe's equation should be a bit less than 0.05, rather than 0.5 _______________________________________________ _____________________________________

- Steve etal, Sorry but the 0.5 in the first line on losses. That was obviously a typo. It should have been 0.05. You can see that by seeing that I gave an example and that value is correct. Thanks for
