SMA Extension Cable: 3FT, 40-in, 4FT, 5FT, 6FT, 8FT, 10FT SMA male To female

SMA Male to SMA Female Extender Cable for Antennas

• See other lengths of SMA Extension Cables
• One end has an SMA-male and the other end has an SMA-female connector with bulkhead nut & washer.
• Data Alliance's high-quality soldered terminations of SMA connectors with soldering provide a low-loss connection with discontinuities kept to a minimum.

Cable is double-shielded, low-loss and very flexible/easily bendable coax with black jacket. The double-shielding is a major factor in the higher quality of this cable, which translates into lower loss/better performance. Rated for outdoor use and suitable for indoor use.

We offer two options of thickness of cable (both are double-shielded):

• The LMR-100-equivalent cable-type is equivalent or better than LMR100: Has the same or better signal-loss-per-meter and flexibility as LMR100, and less attenuation (signal loss) than RG174 and RG178. The higher quality of the cable translates into lower loss/better performance. Cable is equivalent to LMR-100 in thickness.
• The LMR-200-equivalent cable-type is equivalent or better than LMR200: Has the same or better signal-loss-per-meter and flexibility as LMR200, and less attenuation (signal loss) than RG58.
• Comparison of attenuation (signal loss) of LMR-100 and LMR-200.

The temperature range for operational use of these cable assemblies are as follows:

• Cables with 100-series coax: -22 F ~ +185 F (-30 C ~ +85 C)
• Cables with 200-series coax: -31 F ~ +203 F (-35 C ~ +95 C)

• 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 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).

SMA-male has a pin inside the connector body

• SMA gender is counter-intuitive: Please observe picture & note it is correct.  
• The gender is referring to the pins inside-not the threads. SMA male has threads on inside.

• 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

• 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.

RoHS and REACH compliant: All of our antenna cables and adapters are compliant with the RoHS & REACH restrictions on content of lead, other heavy metals and toxins.
