SMA(M) TO UHF(F) ADAPTOR 4GHZ

1. Frequency Range:
   • Up to 4 GHz: The adapter is designed to operate effectively up to 4 GHz. For applications requiring higher frequencies, ensure the adapter is rated accordingly.
2. Impedance:
   • 50 Ohms: Standard impedance for most RF systems, ensuring proper signal matching and minimal signal reflection.
3. Connector Types:
   • SMA Male: Features a center pin and threaded coupling mechanism.
   • UHF Female: Features a center socket. UHF connectors are generally larger and used for a range of RF applications.
4. Insertion Loss:
   • Typically ≤ 0.3 dB: Indicates the amount of signal power lost as it passes through the adapter. Lower insertion loss is preferable to maintain signal strength.
5. Return Loss:
   • Typically ≥ 15 dB: Measures how well the adapter maintains impedance matching. Higher values indicate less signal reflection and better performance.
6. VSWR (Voltage Standing Wave Ratio):
   • Typically ≤ 1.5: Represents how effectively the adapter maintains impedance and minimizes signal reflections. Lower VSWR values are better for maintaining signal quality.
7. Construction Material:
   • Body: Often made from high-quality materials such as brass or stainless steel for durability and reliability.
   • Plating: Typically gold or nickel-plated to ensure good conductivity and resistance to corrosion.
8. Temperature Range:
   • Typically -55°C to +165°C: Ensures reliable operation across a wide range of environmental conditions.
9. Size and Weight:
   • Compact Design: Designed to be compact and lightweight, making it easy to integrate into RF systems.

Example Part Number:

• Manufacturer: Look for RF component suppliers such as Amphenol, Pasternack, or similar companies.
• Part Number Example: Specific part numbers will vary, but you might find models like Pasternack PE4455 or similar. Verify with the supplier for exact part numbers and specifications.

Applications:

• RF and Microwave Systems: Connects SMA male connectors to UHF female connectors in various RF and microwave applications.
• Communication Equipment: Useful in systems where UHF connectors are used and SMA connectors need to be integrated.
• Test and Measurement: Common in RF testing environments where different types of connectors need to be interfaced.

Visual Inspection:

• Connector Compatibility: Ensure that the SMA male and UHF female connectors are properly matched, with appropriate pin and socket configurations for a secure connection.

When selecting an SMA Male to UHF Female adapter, confirm that it meets your frequency, impedance, and performance requirements. Always refer to datasheets and specifications provided by the manufacturer to ensure compatibility and optimal performance for your application.
