Conclusions • 3 new ESCC specifications for this series
• A new TNC series fully qualified: ESA QPL coming
soon
• Very attractive solution compared to waveguide
• Fully compatible with current TNC series, but to benefit the max power capability, Radiall suggests to work with connectors pairs from this new range.
