Coaxial Pigtail Cable MaxLink Pigtail RF240 0.5m — RSMA male to RSMA female

MaxLink Pigtail RF240 0.5m is a coaxial cable assembly with RSMA male to RSMA female connectors engineered for short, low-loss RF connections. This 0.5 metre RF240 pigtail provides a compact, flexible link between antennas, routers, wireless modules and test equipment where RSMA terminations are required. The cable is intended for signal routing, temporary connections, testing and replacing damaged leads without altering existing installations.

Advantages

The RF240 construction delivers predictable impedance and reduced signal attenuation over short distances. RSMA male to RSMA female terminations offer secure mating and easy, repeatable connection and disconnection. The short 0.5 m length minimises signal degradation while preserving flexibility for tight routing in equipment racks, enclosures or small wireless devices. The pigtail design simplifies replacement of faulty leads and reduces the need to rework fixed cabling.

Suitable for

• Connecting antennas to routers, modems and access points with RSMA ports
• Interfacing wireless modules and development boards to external antennas
• Signal routing and short patch connections in test benches and RF labs
• Replacing or extending existing short RF leads in compact equipment

Key specifications

• Cable type: RF240 coaxial
• Length: 0.5 metre
• Connector A: RSMA male
• Connector B: RSMA female
• Characteristic impedance: 50 Ω
• Typical application: RF signal routing and patching

How to use

Ensure both mating connectors are free of dust and damage before making the connection. Align the RSMA male and female connectors and engage by hand until secure; avoid over-tightening. Route the cable to prevent sharp bends or pinch points that could increase insertion loss. For installations that remain in place for extended periods, periodically inspect the connectors and cable jacket for wear or corrosion and replace the pigtail if any degradation is observed.

Usage recommendations

Use this 0.5 m pigtail where a short, flexible RF link is required; avoid using significantly longer runs with this cable type if low loss is critical. Keep bend radius above the cable manufacturer’s minimum and protect exposed connections with appropriate weatherproofing if used outdoors.
