SMA Male to N Male Adapter

Description

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

This adapter is indispensable for engineers and technicians who need to join two female ports directly?typically connecting an N-Type female port on a base station, amplifier, or antenna to an SMA female port on a microwave module or test instrument. Precision-machined to ensure a constant 50 Ohm impedance, it is constructed with a heavy-duty nickel-plated brass body and PTFE (Teflon) insulation. Its design ensures exceptional signal integrity and low VSWR up to 11 GHz, bridging the gap between delicate microwave components and heavy-duty professional hardware while eliminating the need for intermediate cable jumpers.

Key Technical Advantages

• Direct Series Conversion: Provides a seamless, low-loss transition between high-precision SMA and rugged N-Type standards in a single, compact housing.

• Superior RF Shielding: The solid brass construction and high-quality plating provide a continuous ground path, ensuring maximum protection against EMI and RFI interference.

• Rugged Mechanical Stability: The durable housing and dual threaded coupling nuts are designed to handle mechanical torque and physical stress in both field and laboratory environments.

• Precision-Machined Threads: Features high-quality threading on both interfaces to ensure smooth, secure connections and prevent port damage during high-frequency use.

• Maximum Conductivity: High-purity gold or silver plating on both internal center contact pins ensures ultra-low contact resistance and superior protection against oxidation.

Key Features

• SMA Male to N Male Interface: Consists of an SMA Plug (with pin and hex coupling nut) and an N-Type Plug (with pin and hex/knurled coupling nut).

• Double-Male Configuration: Specifically designed for joining two female ports (SMA Female to N-Type Female) without additional cabling.

• Nickel-Plated Brass Construction: Offers superior corrosion resistance and professional-grade durability for indoor and outdoor applications.

• Premium PTFE Dielectric: Provides high thermal stability and maintains a constant dielectric constant across its operating frequency range.

• Industrial Durability: Rated for at least 500 mating cycles, ensuring long-term reliability in high-traffic test and communication systems.
