Collaborating with engineering teams during design and development is key, according to Coaxicom, which specializes in radius (swept) RF connectors that are designed to improve signal integrity and reduce performance loss in demanding, mission-critical environments.
STUART, Fla.—Coaxicom, the manufacturing brand of Coaxial Components Corp., is a U.S.-based manufacturer of RF connectors, adapters, cable assemblies, attenuators, terminations, and precision connector components. The company supports aerospace, defense, telecommunications, and advanced technology industries with high-performance RF components and specialized manufacturing capabilities.
“What sets Coaxicom apart is our ability to collaborate directly with engineering teams during the design and development phase,” said Coaxicom Director of Manufacturing Julian Andrews, in a March release. “We’re helping engineers solve signal and space challenges early, which leads to stronger performance and more reliable systems in the field.”

Coaxicom revealed in the release that it expanded its capabilities in precision radius RF connector manufacturing to further support high-frequency aerospace, defense, and advanced communications applications.
According to Coaxicom, as RF systems operate at higher frequencies and tighter tolerances, connector geometry plays an increasingly important role in system performance. While traditional right-angle connectors remain widely used, Coaxicom stated that it specializes in radius (swept) RF connectors that are designed to improve signal integrity and reduce performance loss in demanding environments.
“Standard right-angle connectors introduce abrupt internal transitions that can impact signal performance, particularly in high-frequency applications,” the release stated. “These transitions may lead to impedance discontinuities, increased signal reflection, and reduced efficiency.”
Coaxicom’s radius connector designs replace sharp transitions with a controlled curved geometry, allowing signals to travel more smoothly through the connector. This approach is said to help reduce signal loss and maintain consistent electrical performance across critical RF systems.
Coaxicom’s radius RF connectors support frequency ranges from DC to 18 GHz, with select models extending up to 26 GHz, enabling their use in advanced RF and microwave systems. The connectors are manufactured using precision-machined materials—including stainless steel, beryllium copper, and PTFE dielectric—and are designed to maintain reliable performance in high-frequency and high-reliability environments, the company said.
According to Coaxicom, radius RF connector manufacturing requires precise control over geometry and tolerances, making it a capability not widely offered across the RF connector industry. Coaxicom maintains JCP Certification (DD Form 2345 approval), enabling access to technical data critical to the military, and participation in controlled government programs. The company also supports ITAR-regulated manufacturing, ISO-certified quality systems, and alignment with NIST standards.
As a women-owned business, Coaxicom stated that it supports supplier diversity initiatives within government procurement environments. In addition to connector manufacturing, Coaxicom provides tools such as its Cable Builder platform to support RF cable assembly configuration and streamline engineering and procurement workflows. The company’s products are used in aerospace systems, defense electronics, radar platforms, satellite communications, and advanced RF engineering applications, the release stated.
