MATE-AX 2298721-9 To FAKRA Cable

This four channel coaxial harness connects a grouped MATE-AX Mini FAKRA interface to four separate FAKRA terminations. It is intended for automotive camera and RF wiring layouts where a compact equipment connection must reach individually positioned cable interfaces.

The range includes male and female branch ends, with standard or sealed FAKRA termination options. The common four cavity end remains the same across all four versions.

Product Specifications

Available Configurations

MATE-AX to Four FAKRA Female Cable

Connection Structure
One MATE-AX Z Code four cavity female interface, housing reference 2298721-9, connects to four standard FAKRA Z Code straight female ends. The supplied branch interface reference is 2-2326910-0.

Unique Difference
Provides four female branch terminations without the additional sealing components used in Version 3.

Suitable Installation
Protected connection locations with matching FAKRA male interfaces, where sealed branch connectors are not specified.

MATE-AX to Four FAKRA Male Cable

Connection Structure
One MATE-AX Z Code four cavity female interface, housing reference 2298721-9, connects to four standard FAKRA Z Code straight male ends. The supplied branch interface reference is 2-2326914-0.

Unique Difference
Changes all four branch terminations to male interfaces while retaining the standard housing construction.

Suitable Installation
Connections to existing female terminated leads within enclosed equipment or protected harness junctions.

MATE-AX to Four Sealed FAKRA Female Cable

Connection Structure
One MATE-AX Z Code four cavity female interface, housing reference 2298721-9, connects to four sealed FAKRA Z Code straight female ends. The supplied branch interface reference is 2-2380551-0.

Unique Difference
Adds sealed female branch terminations while retaining the nonsealed common interface.

Suitable Installation
Layouts requiring sealed connections at the four branch locations, with the grouped end housed in a separately protected area.

MATE-AX to Four Sealed FAKRA Male Cable

Connection Structure
One MATE-AX Z Code four cavity female interface, housing reference 2298721-9, connects to four sealed FAKRA Z Code straight male ends. The supplied branch interface reference is 2-2307198-0.

Unique Difference
Combines male branch interfaces with sealed termination construction.

Suitable Installation
Harness junctions requiring matching sealed female connections, particularly where the branch leads continue into separately routed cable sections.

Applications & Customer Value

Multiple Camera Connections

Camera installations can place connection points at different distances from the receiving equipment. Individual branch routing allows each cable to follow its intended path rather than forcing all four connections into the same mounting area.

Centralized RF Equipment

A grouped equipment port can simplify the device connection area, while external circuits still require individual access. The harness bridges those layouts and allows each branch to be identified for its assigned circuit.

Mixed Installation Environments

The equipment end and branch connections may face different environmental conditions. Selecting sealed branch ends allows the connector arrangement to reflect those local requirements while keeping the nonsealed grouped end within a protected enclosure.

Prototype and Test Assemblies

Development teams need to trace each equipment position to the correct external connection. Defined branch labels and an approved channel map make repeated setup and troubleshooting easier.

Product Features

Customization Capabilities

Premier Cable supports:

Connector Customization

Premier Cable reviews connector type, gender, coding and housing design against the mating interfaces. Mixed branch combinations can be assessed when the installation requires different terminations on individual channels.

Cable Customization

Overall length, individual branch lengths, jacket, shielding and cable structure can be reviewed from the routing requirements. Cable selection is checked against contact attachment and sealing component requirements.

Electrical Customization

Pin assignment, channel mapping and wiring definitions can be documented on the assembly drawing. Requests involving circuit configuration, resistance values or power ratings require separate engineering assessment.

OEM Manufacturing

Premier Cable supports drawing review, prototype preparation and mass production following sample approval. Branch identification, product labels and packaging can be defined for installation control and repeat orders.

Product FAQ

Q1. Is this a four way RF splitter?

No. It connects four separate coaxial paths through a grouped interface. It does not divide one input signal among four outputs.

Q2. Does 2298721-9 identify the complete cable assembly?

No. It identifies the common connector housing reference. The complete harness also requires contacts, cable terminations and the selected branch components.

Q3. Can the cable be used with any four camera system?

Compatibility depends on the mating interfaces, channel assignment and electrical requirements. No particular camera model or communication protocol has been confirmed.

Q4. Do the sealed branch versions make the entire harness IP67 Waterproof?

No. The common 2298721-9 housing is nonsealed. A complete assembly protection rating cannot be inferred from sealed branch connectors.

Q5. What should be provided for a quotation?

Provide the version, quantity, cable type, branch lengths and mating connector information. Include a channel map and any labeling or validation requirements.
