Flat RP-SMA Antenna Cable: Male To female 10" 18" 30" For Window or Door

FLAT CABLE FITS UNDER/OVER WINDOWS & DOORS

• Cable flattens to pass under window / door. All of our flat antenna cables are weatherproof.
• The length of cable is from end of connector to end of connector
• Connectors: one is male & one is female
• The following versions have RP-SMA Male right-angle on one end and RP-SMA Female on the other: 10-inch, 18 inch, 24-inch and 30-inch. The seven-inch version has straight (not right angle) connectors on both ends.
• See SMA version of this cable (LoRaWAN hotspots / access points have SMA-female antenna connectors).
• See RP-SMA-male to N-male version of this cable
• See our Helium accessory items directory: For range-extension of Helium miners
• Almost all Helium miners have RP-SMA-female antenna connectors
• Data Alliance's high-quality soldered terminations of RP-SMA connectors with soldering provide a low-loss connection with discontinuities kept to a minimum.

Eliminates drilling through walls and conveniently runs under or over windows and doors.
The cable is a very durable, which flattens when a window or door is closed on it; it can easily withstand the rigors of windows & doors being closed on it over and over again.

RP-SMA male connector fits the Helium miners' antenna connectors, which have an RP-SMA-female connector. This includes Bobcat miners, Sensecap miners and all other Helium LongFi miners.

Compatibility with wireless standards & applications: Our SMA to RP-SMA extension cables' range of frequency band compatibility (from 0 to 18GHz), consistently low broadband VSWR, and impedance matching to 50 Ohm antennas and cables, makes them suitable and compliant for all the above applications.

• This antenna cable is compatible with almost all Helium miners, including Bobcat miners and Sensecap miners , as are all of our antenna cables and adapters with RP-SMA-male connectors. Data Alliance's 915 MHz antennas with RP-SMA connectors are all also compatible with all Helium miners.
  
  • See full list of Helium LongFi miners with their antenna connector types

Also compatible with all of the following:

• • 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, 5G: Data and voice applications
  • IoT wireless, automation & Machine to Machine (M2M): Bluetooth, ZigBee, RFID, LoRa, LTE-m, NB-IoT.

RP-SMA female connector includes a bulkhead nut and washer for mounting & waterproofing:

• 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.
• The length of our standard RP-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

RP-SMA female and male diameter:

• RP-SMA female outside diameter is 5/16" (7.9375mm): Accommodates a hex nut (bulkhead nut) with 5/16" nominal outer diameter
• RP-SMA male inside diameter is 5/16" (7.9375mm) (the inside diameter where the threads are).

RP-SMA Connector Materials Composition:

• Connector Body: Gold Plated Brass
• Center Contact: Beryllium Copper, Gold Plated
• Crimp Ferrule: Copper, Nickel Plated Brass
• Insulators: PTFE
• Precision machined for low loss in ISO 9001 facilities

RP-SMA Connector: Other Characteristics & Details

• RP-SMA = Reverse Polarity SMA. Also known as SMA-RP, SMA-R.
• RP-SMA gender is counter-intuitive: The gender is referring to the pins inside-not the threads. RP-SMA male has threads on inside.
• RP-SMA female connector is also called "jack" and RP-SMA-male is also called "plug."
• RP-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.
• We offer an RP-SMA wrench to assist in installing antennas, cables and adapters with RP-SMA or SMA connector(s).
• RP-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 or SMA connectors without an adapter.

ROHS 3 and REACH: All of our antenna cables are compliant with ROHS 3 and REACH restrictions on content of lead, other heavy metals and toxic materials.

RP-SMA male to female extension cable is easy and quick to install: The RP-SMA male connector fits the jack on most WiFi routers, and the RP-SMA female connector fits the male connector on antennas with an RP-SMA male connector: Most WiFi antennas with an RP-SMA connector have a male connector. The extension cable enables placing the antenna further from the router, in the most suitable place for line of sight.
