Amphenol RF has expanded the cable assembly combination of reverse polarity (RP) SMA to AMC components on RG-178 cables. The component is created in a flexible cable type that provides good thermal resistance and is very suitable for narrow spaces. The safety thread coupling mechanism provided on the RP-SMA connector, together with the push fit of the right angle AMC connector, makes these components very suitable for antenna, WLAN, GPS and cellular applications
This connector provides the same benefits and functions as the SMA interface, but the gender of the contact pin of the device is opposite. In terms of long-term use, these connectors also provide additional benefits over traditional SMAs. In the case of wear, this is a characteristic result of twisting and twisting, resulting in a decrease in signal strength. RP-SMA connector only allows replacement of antenna or cable, which has the advantage of saving time.
These cable components are usually used on Wi Fi or WLAN devices and usually prevent the high gain antenna from connecting to the consumer device where it is located.
