GORE™ 100 Series Connectors
 GORE™ 100 Series Connectors are a super high density blindmate/push-on, high performance, microwave interconnect system. The connector series was developed as a response to the industry’s demand for increased packaging density, low
mass, and increased performance at higher frequencies.
The GORE™ 100 Series Connectors offer the lowest profile and mass for modular system designers. The connectors offer performance through 100 GHz while offering superior and repeatable RF properties. The connectors are designed to accommodate both radial and axial misalignment with negligible VSWR change.
The blindmate interfaces are robust and durable while being very light weight. A socket-to-socket bullet weighs less than 0.02 grams. All connector constructions use qualified mil standard materials. Instrument grade test adapters are available to 1.85 mm.
