Coaxial cable Rangeful SMA Male to SMA Female HF400 50 Ω, 5 m

Coaxial cable Rangeful SMA Male to SMA Female HF400 50 Ω, 5 m is a flexible RF cable intended for use where a 50 Ω transmission line is required. The cable pairs SMA male and SMA female connectors on a HF400-type coaxial construction to provide straightforward connector-to-connector linkage for antenna connections, test equipment and general signal routing. Its 5 m length allows convenient placement between components in lab setups and small installations while maintaining stable signal transfer suitable for many RF applications.

Advantages

The HF400 construction offers a balance of flexibility and mechanical robustness while maintaining a 50 Ω impedance for consistent RF performance. SMA male to SMA female termination provides easy mating with a wide range of equipment and antennas that use SMA interfaces. The 5 m length reduces the need for additional adapters and enables tidy cable runs in test benches and compact system layouts.

Suitable for

• Connecting RF test equipment and network analyzers to devices under test
• Linking antennas, filters and amplifiers with SMA interfaces
• Signal routing in lab benches, prototyping and small installations
• Temporary or semi-permanent setups where a 5 m 50 Ω cable is required

Key specifications

• Characteristic impedance: 50 Ω
• Cable type: HF400-style coaxial construction
• Connector A: SMA male
• Connector B: SMA female
• Nominal length: 5 m
• Typical application: RF signal transmission and antenna connections

How to use

Inspect both SMA connectors and mating interfaces for cleanliness before connecting to avoid contamination that can affect signal quality. Hand-tighten the SMA coupling nut until finger-tight and then use a torque wrench only if specified torque values are required by connected equipment—avoid overtightening. Route the cable with gentle bends, respecting the cable's minimum bend radius to prevent deformation. For test and measurement setups, keep the cable run as short as practical and avoid running parallel to power lines to reduce potential interference.

Usage recommendations

Store the cable coiled without sharp kinks and protect connectors with dust caps when not in use. For highest RF integrity, periodically inspect and clean connector interfaces and replace the cable if you observe physical damage, excessive wear or degraded signal performance.
