If the part number ends with 5, the flange (on the female end) is 5/16" in diameter (and has no embedded o-ring). If the part number ends with 7, the flange is 7/16" in diameter and comes with an embedded black o-ring: See photo of the flange options.
See details regarding the SMA female connector below on this page: Weatherproofing, mounting, and length options.
The cable-type is equivalent or better than LMR-100: Coax with black jacket has the same or better signal-loss-per-meter and flexibility as LMR100, and less attenuation (signal loss) than RG174.
This cable is rated for outdoor use and is also suitable for indoor use.
The higher quality of the cable of this antenna translates into lower loss/better performance.
Cable is equivalent to LMR-100 in thickness.
Recommended tightest bend radius is 1 inch (28mm).
SMA & RP-SMA Connector Characteristics and Details
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 & RP-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).
SMA & RP-SMA Gender Determination: Key Points
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.
RP-SMA (reverse polarity) means that the pin and socket configuration is the opposite of what you would expect: RP-SMA female has a pin inside, and RP-SMA male has a socket inside.
Precision machined for low loss in ISO 9001 facilities
RoHS 3 and REACH compliant: All of our antenna cables and RF adapters are compliant with RoHS 3 and REACH restrictions on content of lead and other heavy metals and toxins.
