Within the connector, the male pin is made from gold-plated brass and sits with a recessed Delrin insulator. It carries a hex nut that may assist in tightening the connector. It is made from machined brass that is nickel plated.
These miniature connectors were developed for mobile applications, like vehicles or portable devices where they will potentially encounter jolts, impacts, and vibrations that could cause disengagement or damage to the connection of radio frequency circuit components. These 50-Ohm adapters are mated to the SMA connector at one end and the FME connector by screw-coupling as with the regular connectors.įME connectors are also known as SAP or nipple connectors. With an FME to SMA adapter, the utility and flexibility of antenna and networking installations are increased across the main application of the key classes of connectors. They increase interconnectivity between antennas, cables, and radio frequency devices that use either the SMA connector or FME connector.
