MIL-DTL-55235A
3.7 Form over. Any form over in the connectors shall withstand the force specified without any
evidence of damage to the form over, when tested as specified in 4.7.8.
3.8 Cable clamping. The method used for securing the cable to the connector shall not require
the use of special tools, shall be simple, and shall require no combing of the braid to meet the cable
retention requirements of 3.6.
3.9 Assembly instructions. Instructions for the assembly of cables to connectors shall be
concise and shall be included in each package with the connector, as applicable.
3.10
Interchangeability dimensions. Like units and assemblies shall be physically and
functionally interchangeable. Individual items shall not be hand-picked for fit or performance. Reliance
shall not be placed on any unspecified dimension, rating, characteristic, etc. The interchangeability
dimensions for the male and female connectors shall be as specified on Drawings SC-D-358720 and SC-
D-358721.
3.11
Outline and mounting dimensions. The outline and mounting dimensions of the
receptacles, jacks, and adapters, shall be as specified on Drawing SC-D-358722.
3.12
Marking. Connectors shall be marked in accordance with Standard MIL-STD-130 with
the type designation and the manufacturer's code (UG-1366/U 95172). Marking shall be in depressed
characters, 3/64 inch high, in a convenient place.
3.13 Dielectric withstanding voltage. There shall be no evidence of voltage breakdown between
the center conductor properly positioned and the outer shall of the connectors, and between the center
conductor and the braid of the cable for the adapters, when tested as specified in 4.7.3.
3.14 Insulation resistance. The insulation resistance between the center conductor and outer
shall of mated connectors shall be a minimum of 100,000 megohms initially and after moisture resistance,
when tested as specified in 4.7.4 and 4.7.14.
3.15 Contact resistance. The resistance measurements on all connectors (excluding adapters)
of mated inner contacts and of mated outer contacts measured individually shall not exceed 0.0025 and
0.0003 ohms, respectively, and the contact resistance limits of the adapters shall be 0.005 and 0.0006
ohms, respectively, when tested as specified in 4.7.5.
3.16 Voltage standing wave ratio (VSWR). The voltage standing wave ratio of the mated
connectors shall not exceed a value of 1.35:1 up to 10 Gigahertz, when tested as specified in 4.7.9.
3.17 Leakage. The insulation resistance between the center conductor and the outer shall of
the mated connectors shall exceed 100,000 megohms initially and after the leakage test, when tested as
specified in 4.7.4 and 4.7.10.
3.18 Durability. When tested as specified in 4.7.11 for 500 applications of matings and
unmatings, the connectors shall meet the requirements of 3.13.
3.19 Temperature cycling. The connectors shall exhibit no evidence of cracking, streaking,
corrosion, variation in dimensions, changes in operating and electrical characteristics, or any other
damage, when tested as specified in 4.7.12.
3.20 Corrosion. The connectors shall exhibit no evidence of destructive corrosion or pitting,
when tested as specified in 4.7.13. Destructive corrosion shall be defined as follows:
