RF / COAXIAL ADAPTERS

RF Adapters are passive coaxial components that are used to transfer signals from one connector interface to a different connector interface. The geometry and gender of each connector interface can vary and be customized to meet the end use requirement. RF Coaxial Adapters are divided in to two types: In Series and Between Series.

In Series Coaxial Adapters

These adapters have the same connector configuration on either side of the adapter. Some examples of these adapters would be SMA Male to Female, SMA Male to Male, N Type Male to Female, etc. As long as the connector type is the same, the adapters are known as In Series Adapters. The gender on each of the connectors can be different and the geometry of the adapter can be selected to be straight or right angle dependent on the application.

Between Series Coaxial Adapters

These adapters have different connector configurations on either side of the adapter. Some examples of these adapters would be SMA Male to N Type Female, BNC Female to N Type Male, etc.

MWC offers RF Coaxial Adapters from multiple manufacturers and provides its on-line parametric search / filter tool to enable engineers to find adapters by desired specification. Parameters such as connector interface, gender, geometry, frequency, etc. can be specified for the adapter and the filter tool illustrates matching products from our franchised manufacturers. Downloadable datasheets are available. Quotes can be requested or adapters can be purchased online.
