DeLOCK 88816 Coaxial Cable

This coaxial cable connects radio frequency components and is suitable for RF signal transmission between devices. It features an RF SMA bulkhead jack on one end and an MHF (I-PEX) U.FL-LP-088 (Hirose) compatible plug on the other, with a 500 mm black coaxial cable of 1.37 mm diameter and 50 Ω impedance.

Advantages

The cable provides a standard 50 Ohm impedance for RF applications and a combination of SMA bulkhead and MHF (I-PEX) U.FL-compatible connectors for compatibility with common radio and wireless modules. Its 500 mm length offers flexibility for typical equipment layouts while the compact 1.37 mm coaxial construction supports easy routing inside devices or enclosures.

Key specifications

How to use

Align the MHF (I-PEX) U.FL-compatible plug with the corresponding socket on the radio module and press gently until it clicks into place. Secure the SMA bulkhead jack by mounting it through an appropriate panel or chassis cutout and fastening from the rear if required. Ensure both connectors are fully seated to maintain proper RF contact and minimize signal loss.

Recommendations

Avoid repeated mating and unmating of the MHF (I-PEX) connector to reduce wear; handle the small plug by the connector body, not the cable. Route the cable with gentle bends and avoid sharp kinks to preserve the 50 Ω characteristic impedance and ensure reliable RF performance.
