SMA Female to IPEX WiFi Connector Cable

Overview

The SMA Female to IPEX WiFi Connector Cable is a high-quality RF adapter cable designed to bridge external SMA antennas and wireless modules that use an IPEX (U.FL) antenna port. This cable delivers low signal loss and reliable performance across 2.4GHz and 5GHz bands, making it ideal for Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, LoRa, ZigBee and other RF applications.

Key Features of the SMA Female to IPEX WiFi Connector Cable

• SMA Female to IPEX (U.FL) Adapter: Enables the use of standard SMA antennas with modules that have an IPEX antenna port.
• Low Signal Loss: High-quality coaxial cable construction minimizes attenuation for clearer signals and improved range.
• Wide Frequency Support: Optimized for 2.4GHz and 5GHz operation, suitable for Wi-Fi, Bluetooth and many ISM band systems.
• Flexible and Lightweight: Thin, pliable cable that fits easily inside enclosures, routers, development boards and compact IoT assemblies.
• Plug-and-Play: Simple installation. Snap the IPEX connector onto the module and screw the SMA antenna onto the SMA female connector.
• Durable Construction: Robust connectors and shielded cable ensure longevity in embedded and mobile applications.
• Wide Compatibility: Works with ESP32, ESP8266, Wi-Fi expansion cards, LoRa modules, FPV systems, GPS/GSM modules and other IPEX-equipped devices.
