FAKRA Male to SMB Female RF Connector for Automotive Camera

This automotive-grade RF conversion cable adopts diamond double-hole flange panel-mount FAKRA male waterproof plug on one end, paired with straight SMB female jack at the other end, assembled with low-loss 50Ω thin coaxial cable (RG174 / LMR100 optional).

The unique diamond triangular flange with dual screw holes can be firmly locked on camera housings, bumper panels or vehicle dashboard panels to eliminate connector loosening caused by long-term driving vibration. A built-in silicone sealing ring delivers IP64 dustproof and splash-proof performance to resist car wash water, road dust and engine compartment humidity.

It realizes one-step signal conversion between standard FAKRA automotive camera interfaces and mini SMB ports on ADAS/navigation main control boards, stably transmits CVBS analog HD and digital high-definition parking vision signals without extra intermediate adapters.

Widely used in passenger car reversing cameras, automatic parking auxiliary ADAS equipment, 360° panoramic surround view systems, car central control multimedia hosts, new energy vehicle blind spot monitoring modules. Customizable cable length, coaxial model, full waterproof heat-shrink reinforcement, connector plating color; all raw materials comply with automotive low-halogen, RoHS and ISO16750 vibration standards.

Specification

Advantages

• Diamond Dual-Screw Flange Anti-Vibration Fixed Design (Core Advantage)

  Ordinary straight FAKRA connectors are prone to loosening from cable pulling and vehicle bumping; the two-hole diamond flange is rigidly locked to the camera housing, completely solving parking camera black screen, flicker and signal loss faults during driving.

• IP64 Silicone Gasket Splash-Proof For Exterior Camera Installation

  Built-in sealing ring at the flange mounting surface blocks rainwater and car wash splashes, avoiding short-circuit damage to exposed rear bumper/trunk camera wiring in rainy weather.

• Direct FAKRA-SMB Conversion Eliminates Extra Adapters

  Realizes seamless switching between factory standard automotive FAKRA camera ports and mini SMB interfaces of ADAS navigation hosts, reduces signal attenuation and impedance mismatch caused by multiple intermediate connectors.

• DC~6GHz Broadband Compatibility For All HD Vehicle Vision Systems

  Covers CVBS analog reversing cameras and high-definition digital 360° panoramic ADAS signal bands, one cable compatible with all mainstream vehicle intelligent vision equipment.

• Ultra-Thin Flexible Coax Easy Hidden Vehicle Wiring

  Small outer diameter RG174/LMR100 cable can be routed along door seals and trunk rubber strips without occupying assembly space; flexible insulation does not crack after long-term reciprocating vibration.

• One-Stop Custom Auto Camera RF Harness Service

  Support small-batch prototype sampling and mass OEM production; customizable long-distance trunk wiring with wear-resistant corrugated tubes, fully reinforced waterproof versions, directly supplied to auto parts and camera manufacturers for plug-and-play assembly.

FAQ

Q1: What is the function of the diamond two-hole flange on the FAKRA male connector?

A1: The triangular diamond flange reserves two screw mounting holes to lock the connector on camera housing or vehicle panel, limiting connector rotation and cable pulling force, fundamentally eliminating intermittent signal faults caused by long-term vehicle vibration.

Q2: What is the structural difference between FAKRA bayonet lock and SMB snap lock?

A2: FAKRA adopts 1/4 turn twist bayonet locking with superior anti-vibration performance, the general original standard interface for factory automotive cameras; SMB is miniature quick snap lock with small volume, used for compact PCB modules of car central control hosts. This cable achieves signal interconversion between the two different interfaces.

Q3: Can this cable be used for exposed rear bumper reversing cameras?

A3: Yes, the FAKRA flange is equipped with a silicone waterproof sealing ring, reaching IP64 dust and splash resistance after screw locking, which can cope with daily car washing and light rain splashing; for long-term outdoor heavy rain environments, you can customize the full heat-shrink reinforced fully waterproof version.

Q4: Which coaxial wire should be selected for long-distance wiring from the trunk to the front dashboard?

A4: For lengths exceeding 3 meters, choose LMR100 low-loss coaxial cable to reduce high-frequency HD video signal attenuation; within 3 meters, RG174 thin wire balances cost and performance.

Q5: Does this RF cable pass automotive-grade temperature cycle and vibration testing?

A5: All finished products pass ISO16750 automotive vibration aging and -40~+85℃ high-low temperature cycle testing, fully meeting the matching standards for passenger cars and commercial vehicle auto parts.
