nextgen™ - a new generation of plug connections from WBT
WBT nextgen RCA Connector, WBT-0110-Ag with signal conductor made of fine silver. Priced for 1 piece.
Profile in brief: WBT-0110 Ag:
- 75 ohms (typ.) characteristic impedance
- Totally distortion-free (no eddy currents)
- Ultimate conductivity (single-piece signal conductor made of fine silver)
- Absolutely reliable signal transmission thanks to patented WBT clamping mechanism
- 2-section clamping sleeve in cobalt blue
Product Description:
75-ohm characteristic impedance means that these plugs not only transmit superb analogue signals but also outstanding digital audio and video signals. The transmission bandwidth is 1 GHz.
Eddy currents occur in metal components close to where alternating currents flow. These currents can result in major signal distortions. The WBT-0110 Ag is designed in such a way that eddy currents do not occur at all.
The contact elements of the plug are made of high-purity silver, the best electrical conductor of all, in order to ensure optimum signal transmission. The metal is naturally passivated so that the surface does not corrode or migrate and impair contact quality.
The clamping mechanism, which works in the same way as the chuck device in a drill, firmly clamps the outer contact against the RCA socket. The high clamping pressure not only guarantees a secure connection but also minimises transition resistance. The pressure wedge between the contact and the sleeve is made of plastic, which means that the sleeve is completely insulated and cannot influence the signal. In addition, any size variation in the outer contact of a socket is compensated for, thereby ensuring a perfect fit.
The clamping sleeve is designed with two sections so that the front section moves freely as the rear section is turned. This eliminates the risk of torsional strain on the contact elements.
The central pin is slotted and ideally formed thereby giving a firm yet elastic contact which ensures lasting and reliable electrical connection with absolutely minimal transition resistance.
The central contact element can be removed to facilitate cable soldering. WBT provides a special nextgen tool for this purpose to OEM users. WBT recommends the surface friendly silver solder WBT-0800.
A Torx screw provides reliable cable strain relief.
