MHV connectors are coaxial Miniature High Voltage connectors with 5 kV rms test voltage in mated condition and a working voltage up to 1.6 kV rms. They suit applications up to 300 MHz.
MHV connectors are of similar design to BNC connectors, but the insulators protrude over the outer contacts to give a degree of shock protection when unmated.
The use of series SHV is recommended if a high degree of shock protection in the unmated condition is required.
