U.FL Extension Cable

Antenna Cable: uFL-male To uFL female extender. One end of this cable has a U.FL-male connector, and the other end has a U.FL female connector.

Coaxial Cable Types for U.FL cables:

  • Coaxial cable type is RG174: RG174 is better quality than 1.13mm and has a black jacket. The higher quality of this cable translates into lower loss/better performance. This cable is rated for outdoor use and is also suitable for indoor use. Note that LMR-100 coax is too thick in diameter to use with U.FL connectors.
  • Option: 1.13mm mini-coaxial cable (50 Ohm impedance): This is a very thin and flexible cable, with a black jacket. When connecting U.FL connector to a jack on a miniPCI card or board, often the tight space requires the use of 1.13mm cable because it is very thin and flexible. The very thin cable is typically needed in tight spaces inside of enclosures, so that the U.FL connector will snap down on the jack without popping off.
  • Special Orders: Please see this note about options for thickness of the coax, and note that we can make special orders with 1.13mm, RG174, or 1.32mm coax if you want a lower-loss, thicker cable for the shorter versions of this cable. 1.32mm coax is double-shielded while also very thin (1.32mm diameter): Contact us to make a special order.

U.FL extension cable coax compared:  1.13mm and RG-174

Compatibility with wireless standards / applications: Our U.FL cables' range of frequency band compatibility (from 0 to 18GHz) and 50 Ohms impedance matching makes them suitable and compliant for all the following applications:

U.FL female and male connectors gender and materials composition

U.FL Connectors Characteristics

  • U.FL female has a socket. U.FL male has a pin and is the connector that is the "jack" on devices such as BlueTooth boards and ZigBee radios such as XBee, Printed Circuit Boards (PCBs), and internal mini-PCI wireless cards (even though the gender is male, it is the jack U.FL connector.
  • U.FL connectors are widely used in M2M and IOT (Internet of Things) wireless applications.
  • U.FL female right-angle type is the most common U.FL connector type found on U.FL cables: 95% of U.FL cables have a U.FL female right-angle connector.
  • Gender Determination: Micro-connectors such as U.FL have gender that is counter to typical RF terminology for gender, in that "jack" is more typically synonymous with "female:" A U.FL jack on a board (PCB) is the male U.FL, and the connector that mates with the jack is the female.
  • Connecting and disconnecting U.FL connectors from the jack can be difficult to do properly without damaging the U.FL connector or jack. We offer a U.FL insertion tool to enable you to connect/insert and remove/disconnect easily, without causing any damage to the cable, connector, or jack.
  • U.FL connector is also known as Ultra Miniature Coax Connectors (UMCC), and enables attaching antenna to a U.FL jack/connector on PCBs: U.FL female mates with a female HiRose/U.FL jack, also known as U.FL-LP-66 jack/connector.
  • U.FL connector is precision machined and gold-plated brass for low signal loss.

RoHS 3 and REACH compliant: All of our antenna cables and RF adapters are in compliance for content of heavy metals and other toxic materials that are restricted by RoHS 3 and REACH.

Data Alliance's high-quality soldered terminations of U.FL connectors with soldering provide a low-loss connection with discontinuities kept to a minimum.

    Great cables at a great price

    Posted by Nick on 27th Jul 2020

    Had a dickens of a time (yeah, I'm getting old) trying to find the right cables for our applications. Since we are a smaller company, we don't have the coin to contract with a big manufacturer to get the cables we need. Luckily D-A saved the day. We've been getting all of these cables and many others from D-A and have had great luck and with great prices that beat pretty much anyone else. STAY AWAY from the AMAZON cables adn antennas...we learned the hard way...the antennas, cables, etc you find on FleaBay and Amazon are mostly junk. Some good stuff, but you have to filter through it. So why waste your time, just buy from D-A. And no, I don't know the owners, staff, and I am not an investor or anything. Just a satisfied customer.

    Speaking of the staff; they are very knowledgeable. If you have any questions, ask. They can custom make pretty much anything you need. Just need to ask them and they respond pretty quickly to boot.
