Coaxial adapter MikroTik CA-RSM-RSM — RPSMA male to RPSMA male

The MikroTik CA-RSM-RSM is a compact coaxial adapter that connects two RPSMA male connectors. It is designed for RF and antenna connections in wireless networking environments where joining or extending RPSMA-terminated cables is required. The adapter provides a straightforward mechanical and electrical join without the need to alter existing cables or connectors, preserving signal continuity and simplifying installation tasks.

Advantages

The adapter offers a small, lightweight form factor that minimizes strain on cable assemblies while keeping insertion loss low. Its straightforward male-to-male RPSMA interface enables quick connection between antennas, extension cables, or RF devices with compatible connectors. The construction ensures reliable electrical contact and consistent performance for typical Wi‑Fi, cellular, and other RF frequency applications where RPSMA terminations are used.

Suitable for

• Joining two RPSMA-terminated antenna cables
• Extending the reach of wireless antenna assemblies
• Connecting external antennas to wireless routers, access points, or modems
• Temporary or permanent RF signal bridging in lab or field setups

Key specifications

• Connector type: RPSMA male to RPSMA male
• Application: coaxial RF connections for antennas and wireless equipment
• Form factor: inline adapter with two male terminations
• Typical frequency use: suitable for common Wi‑Fi and cellular frequency ranges (practical range depends on system design)
• Mechanical: compact and lightweight to reduce connector strain

How to use

Align the RPSMA male connectors of the adapter with the female RPSMA ports or with RPSMA-terminated cables you intend to join. Gently push the adapter into place until the connection seats securely; avoid excessive force to prevent damage to connector threads or pins. For inline installations, ensure the adapter is supported so that the cable weight does not stress the connector junctions. Verify signal continuity and device operation after installation.

Usage recommendations

To maintain RF performance, use the adapter in systems where the added connection will not introduce unacceptable insertion loss. Avoid exposing the adapter to prolonged moisture or corrosive environments; if used outdoors, provide appropriate weatherproofing at the connector interface. Periodically inspect connections for corrosion or looseness and retighten gently if required.
