This RF adapter cable is super handy for anyone doing RF work. Often times, small electronics save space by having a pick-and-placeable u.FL connector (also called uFL, IPEX, IPAX, IPX, MHF, and AM). But most antennas have SMA or RP-SMA connectors on them. This little cable will bridge the two! This cable is RG178 and is 15cm (5.9") long not including the SMA connector. It has a panel-mount SMA connector on the end, often used for GPS and...
