RP-SMA to U.FL female PCB mount Jack

  • RP-SMA jack for mounting on PCB board, with cable to U.FL connector.
  • Cable is shielded for low signal loss.
  • The length refers to the length of the cable between the connectors (not including the connectors).
  • One end has an RP-SMA-female PCB-mount jack connector, and the other end has a uFL connector.

Coaxial Cable Types for U.FL cables:

  • 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. 1.13mm coax is very thin (1.13mm diameter) which may be necessary for very tight spaces, inside cases and enclosures: Contact us to make a special order.
  • Special version:  We have a 35mm version made with 1.37 coax:  The part# os RSfPCB35mmUFL137:  Contact Customer Service to order this version.

Characteristic comparison between U.FL cable types 1.13mm, 1.32mm, 1.37mm, RG174.

Compatibility with wireless standards & applications

This antenna cable adapter's range of frequency band compatibility (from 0 to 18GHz) and 50 Ohms impedance matching, makes them suitable and compliant for all the above applications.

RP-SMA Female Version Options RP-SMA Elongated
The version of the RP-SMA female connector on the left has an embedded o-ring, together with a wider flange, for more secure protection against intrusion of water and/or dust and dirt. It is available for some cable versions on this page, and others by special order. The longer RP-SMA-female version (top in photo) has a 14.5mm threaded section. It is available for some cable versions on this page, and others by special order.

RP SMA Characteristics, Dimensions and Other Key Information

  • 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.
  • More details regarding SMA & RP-SMA gender determination.

U.FL insertion and removal from a jack on a PCB: Mating instructions

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 a 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 compliant with RoHS 3 and REACH restrictions on content of lead and other heavy metals and toxins.

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