SMA Male to N Male RP Adapter

Description

The SMA Male to N Male RP Adapter is a specialized “between-series” RF component designed to provide a high-reliability transition between the ubiquitous compact SMA standard and the Reverse Polarity N-Type interface. It features an SMA Plug (Male) on one side, utilizing a standard fine-threaded coupling nut and center pin, and an RP-N Plug (Male) on the other.

In a Reverse Polarity N-Type configuration, the “Male” connector maintains the standard heavy-duty N-Type threaded coupling nut but contains a female socket instead of the typical center pin. This adapter is indispensable for technicians and engineers who need to connect SMA female-terminated cables or components to RP-N female ports found on high-gain industrial antennas, outdoor wireless access points, and signal boosters. Precision-machined to ensure a constant 50 Ohm impedance, it is constructed with a durable nickel-plated brass body and PTFE (Teflon) insulation, maintaining exceptional signal integrity and low VSWR up to 11 GHz.

Key Technical Advantages

• Reverse Polarity Integration: Specifically designed to interface with RP-N hardware, ensuring perfect compatibility with specialized industrial wireless networking standards.

• Cross-Series Bridge: Provides a seamless mechanical and electrical link between high-precision SMA instrumentation and ruggedized Reverse Polarity N-Type infrastructure.
