As a unrelated matter (as far as SI is concerned) does anyone know if any 3D AutoCAD models of SMB/SMA connectors available out there, perhaps by a manufacturer of such connectors.

It seems that for middle-of-the-board use a through hole device might be just as good as the SMT device, particularly if the SMT device requires a via.

They seem to work good and have good lifetime in testing applications. The cables we use are pre-made so I don't know who made those connectors.
