RP-SMA Male To Male Adapter

This RP-SMA gender changer has a male connector on each end.

  • Allows interconnection of devices with RP-SMA female interfaces: Antennas, antenna cables and wireless devices.
  • See other RP-SMA adapters and RP-SMA-male right-angle cables and adapters
  • For c oaxial interface conversion, coax retrofit applications

Compatibility with wireless applications: This antenna cable adapter's range of frequency band compatibility (from 0GHz to 18GHz), consistently low broadband VSWR, and impedance matching to 50 Ohm cables, makes them compatible and compliant for all the following applications:

ROHS & REACH compliant: In compliance regarding content of heavy metals and toxic materials restricted by RoHS 3 and REACH.

RP-SMA Connector Characteristics and Details

  • RP-SMA male and female diameter:
    • RP-SMA male inside diameter is 5/16" (7.9375mm) (the inside diameter where the threads are).
    • RP-SMA female outside diameter is 5/16" (7.9375mm): Accommodates a hex nut (bulkhead nut) with 5/16" nominal outer diameter
  • RP-SMA Gender Determination: Key Points
    • RP-SMA gender is counter-intuitive: Please observe picture & note it is correct.
    • The gender is referring to the pins inside--not the threads. RP-SMA male has threads on inside.
    • RP-SMA male has a socket inside rather than a pin, as you might expect, because the RP stands for "Reverse Polarity." The socket/pin configuration is female when it appears to be male, and vice versa.
    • More details regarding RP-SMA gender determination.
  • RP-SMA-Connector Materials Composition:
    • Connector Body: Gold Plated Brass
    • Center Contact: Beryllium Copper, Gold Plated
    • Crimp Ferrule: Copper, Nickel Plated
    • Insulators: PTFE
    • Precision machined for low loss in ISO 9001 facilities
  • Other RP-SMA Characteristics and Key Points
    • RP-SMA-male is also called "plug" and SMA female connector is also called "jack"
    • We offer an RP-SMA wrench to assist in installing antennas, cables and adapters with RP-SMA or SMA connector(s).
    • RP-SMA-male connector fits items that have an SMA-female connector.
    • 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.
    • 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.

    low db loss, high quality

    Posted by NateKnowsIT on 8th Jun 2015

    it's a coupler, what can I say? It is very sturdy and I estimate db loss between 0.25db to 1db at 2400Mhz, which is pretty good. Db loss, per connection, doesn't get much better than that.
