DeLOCK 89978 Cable Adapter

The DeLOCK 89978 cable gender changer is an adapter designed for radio frequency components that converts between RP-SMA and SMA connectors. Finished in a gold color, it provides a corrosion-resistant surface suitable for use in RF setups where reliable mechanical and electrical connection between differing connector types is required.

Advantages

The adapter offers a simple, compact solution for joining RP-SMA and SMA interfaces without soldering or permanent modification. Its gold-coloured finish improves resistance to corrosion and supports consistent signal integrity in typical RF applications.

Key specifications

How to use

Align and hand-tighten the RP-SMA and SMA connectors onto the corresponding mating parts; avoid cross-threading. Ensure connectors are secure but do not over-tighten to prevent damage to threads or the mating devices. Use in dry, clean environments for best performance.

Recommendations

For stable RF performance, check connector compatibility (RP-SMA vs SMA) before installation and inspect connectors for dirt or damage. If repeated mating cycles are expected, handle threads gently and consider torque-limiting tools appropriate for small RF connectors.
