SMA Male Connector for RG-58/ L-195 Coaxial Cable

SMA connectors have become the mainstay of wireless technologies thanks to their modest durability and very compact size. The SMA Male connector can be identified by its hex-shaped outer body which rotates to interface by its inner thread. A gold pin protrudes from the centre of the connector which upon threading together couples with the receptacle on the female connector.

This straight-bodied SMA Male connector is designed for an ordinary crimp and solder attachment to RG-58 and LMR-195 and equivalent series braided coaxial cables.

Installation is very simple. After preparing the cable, the pin is soldered onto the centre conductor and outer body pushed over the top until the pin sits flush. A standard 5.4 mm (.213″) hex die is used to crimp the ferrule.
