Coaxial connector DELOCK 89826 — FAKRA Z male, gold-plated contacts, 21.2×24×7.5 mm

DELOCK 89826 is a single-piece coaxial FAKRA Z male connector designed for radio frequency applications in automotive and telematics environments. The connector features gold-plated contacts for reliable signal transmission and corrosion resistance, and its compact dimensions (21.2 × 24 × 7.5 mm) allow installation in confined spaces. Supplied as a single unit in a polybag, this FAKRA Z male plug is intended for cable assembly, repair work, or integration into RF equipment where FAKRA Z interfaces are required.

Advantages

The connector combines a standardized FAKRA Z interface with gold-plated contacts to ensure consistent low-loss RF performance and improved long-term contact reliability. Its single-piece construction simplifies assembly and reduces the number of mating parts. The compact, low-profile housing is suitable for installations with limited space and supports typical automotive mechanical requirements. Supplied as an individual unit, it is convenient for on-demand repairs and small-scale cable assemblies.

Suitable for

• Automotive RF connections such as antennas, telematics modules, and infotainment systems
• Telematics and communication equipment requiring FAKRA Z interfaces
• Cable assembly and repair tasks for RF cabling
• Integration into diagnostic, measurement, or custom RF devices

How to use

Prepare the coaxial cable by stripping the outer jacket, braid, and dielectric according to the connector manufacturer's recommended dimensions. Insert the prepared cable into the connector body ensuring the center conductor and braid make correct contact with the plug's internal contacts. Crimp or solder as required by the connector design and secure the assembly. When mating, align the FAKRA Z keying and push the connector until it engages; verify the mechanical latch if present. Follow vehicle or equipment manufacturer guidelines for routing and strain relief to prevent mechanical stress on the connection.

Usage recommendations

Use appropriate cable preparation tools and follow specified stripping dimensions to maintain RF performance. Avoid excessive bending or pulling at the termination point and ensure connectors are mated and locked properly to preserve signal integrity in automotive and telematics applications.
