What Is a FAKRA Z Code Female to Female RF Coaxial Cable?
A FAKRA Z Code Female to Female RF Coaxial Cable combines two FAKRA female connectors with coaxial cable for passive RF connections between compatible automotive modules.
It does not convert protocols, frequencies, or voltages. Performance depends on impedance matching, shielding, termination quality, and cable length. Interface and link compatibility must be verified.
FAKRA Z Code Connector Assembly
This assembly uses Rosenberger 59Z113-000-Z aquamarine FAKRA Z code female housings and matching RF contacts. Its standardized structure and locking mechanism support stable connections under automotive vibration.
Z code offers flexible mating, but contact, gender, coding, and dimensions must be verified. Mechanical compatibility does not guarantee RF or protocol compatibility.
Common Issues with Automotive Coaxial Cables
Connector Mismatch
Similar FAKRA housings hide coding and contact differences, risking poor mating.
High Frequency Signal Loss
Long coaxial cables increase RF loss, risking unreliable cameras and data links.
Vibration and Strain
Vehicle vibration and cable strain can loosen connectors or damage terminations.
Poor Cable Length Fit
Fixed cable lengths may cause tight pulls or excess routing, weight and RF loss.
Core Product Value
PCM-ZC-0002
The core advantages of PCM-ZC-0002 can be summarized as:
◆ Standardized RF Connection Interface
Standard FAKRA interfaces simplify mating between compatible automotive modules The female to female design links two male ports for consistent connection and quick assembly.
◆ Controlled 50 Ohm Impedance Transmission
A nominal 50 ohm coaxial path matches compatible RF systems. Proper cable terminations and connector transitions help limit impedance discontinuities and unwanted reflections.
◆ Coaxial Shielding and EMI Resistance
LEONI DACAR 302-4 coaxial shielding helps reduce electromagnetic interference in automotive RF links. Actual shielding effectiveness and EMC compliance require system testing.
◆ Secure Latch Locking Connection
FAKRA locking latches keep connectors engaged and reduce accidental disconnects. Proper cable routing, strain relief and secure terminations improve stability under vibration.

Product Compatibility Statement
This passive 50Ω FAKRA cable neither amplifies signals nor converts protocols, frequencies or voltages. Its DC–6 GHz range cannot carry 76–81 GHz radar carriers; lower-frequency radar ports need validation. GMSL, FPD-Link, PoC and vehicle compatibility require interface, electrical and system tests.
Product Customization Capabilities
Custom Cable Length
Choose 0.5-10 m lengths or custom sizes; check RF loss and any PoC voltage drop.
Custom FAKRA Coding
Customize FAKRA coding, gender and cable exit; verify proper OEM keying and fit.
Custom Coaxial Cable
Use LEONI DACAR 302-4 or other coax; verify 50 ohm impedance, RF losses and fit.
Custom RF Testing
Set VSWR and insertion loss limits; verify S-parameters before batch production.
Harness Protection
Add strain relief, sleeving and labels; panel mounting needs a proper connector.
OEM Bulk Production
Plan OEM labels, packaging, and batch tracking; confirm MOQs and delivery dates.
