Adapter SMA Female To SMA Female
- SMA female on both sides: One side has a large-sized bulkhead nut (outer diameter of the nut is 12.70mm) - much larger than the standard bulkhead for SMA.
- A red O-ring is included, to make a waterproof seal in the port of a enclosure or panel
- Gold-plated and Nickel-Plated Options: Nickel-Plated Brass is the most corrosion-resistant of all plated brass alloys (better than gold-plated).
- A second nickel plated version has a delrin (white plastic) cap for the flange, so that it will not make contact with a metal surface: Part# SfSfOP
- The thicker middle section (where the bulkhead nut resides) has a flat element to prevent turning while inserted in the panel (known as "d hole")
- 50 Ohm impedance
- IP68 waterproof rating
- Enables connection / coupling of two SMA male connectors
- ORING is UL Listed.
Through-Hole Mount / Feed through Adapter, with bulkhead nut and washer, and O-ring. This is a cable-coupling/coupler that feeds through an enclosure wall, for example.
Compatibility with wireless applications: This SMA adapter's range of frequency band compatibility (from 0 to 18GHz), consistently low broadband VSWR, and impedance matching to 50 Ohm cables, makes them compatible and compliant for all the following applications:
- All WiFi standards: 2.4GHz and 5GHz applications: 802.11AC, 802.11N, 802.11G, 802.11B, 802.11A
- Cellular Wireless LTE / 4G, GSM / 3G WiMax: Data and voice applications
- IoT wireless, automation & M2M: Bluetooth, ZigBee, RFID, LoRa, LTE-m, NB-IoT.
SMA female connector includes a bulkhead nut and washer for mounting and/or weatherproofing the connector / port:
- This can be used to mount the connector (and thus the cable) on the wall of a network enclosure (to weatherproof the cable connection), or mount the connector on a case, panel or Printed Circuit Bard (PCB).
- Weatherproofing : Seal the hole where the female connector is mounted, by placing an O-ring between the wall of the enclosure and the bulkhead nut & washer on the female connector.
- All of our cables with SMA and RP-SMA female connectors have bulkhead mount hardware.
- The length of our standard SMA-female connector (threaded part) is 3/8 inches. We have a longer option: 14.5mm, which is available as an option. The longer 14.5mm option has an O-ring embedded in the flange to waterproof the port where the cable enters a network enclosure.
SMA male and female diameter :
- SMA female outside diameter is 5/16" (7.9375mm): Accommodates a hex nut (bulkhead nut) with 5/16" nominal outer diameter
- SMA male inside diameter is 5/16" (7.9375mm) (the inside diameter where the threads are).
Other SMA Characteristics and Key Points
- SMA female connector is also called "jack" and SMA-male is also called "plug."
- We offer an SMA wrench to assist in installing antennas, cables and adapters with SMA or RP-SMA connector(s).
- SMA-female connector fits items that have an SMA-male connector.
- SMA is a round screw-type connector, with medium-sized, threaded coupling connectors that are rated for frequencies from the lowest (DC) up to 18GHz.
- SMA connectors are not compatible with the common, commercially available Type F coaxial connector. Type F connectors look similar but are of slightly different size and will not pair with RP-SMA connectors without an adapter.
Composition of SMA Connectors:
- 96% brass-copper alloy
- Less than 4% lead content ( ROHS Compliant )
- 0.1% Chromium VI compound
- 0.01% (by weight) Cadmium / cadmium compounds
- 0.1% Mercury
- 0.1% PBBs
- 0.1% PBDE
Insertion loss: 0.26 dB maximum

What you need, when you want it.
The product description says it all. There was no mistaking what it is and which gender of produt to order. I received exactly what was ordered and it fit the requirement to a 'tee'. Delivery was extremely prompt. I have placed data-alliance on my list of preferred vendors.
