Coaxial cable Rangeful SMA male to SMA female RG58/U 50 Ω, 5 m

Coaxial cable Rangeful SMA male to SMA female RG58/U 50 Ω, 5 m is a 5-metre RF connection lead built from RG58/U construction with a characteristic impedance of 50 ohms. It provides a standard interface between devices fitted with SMA connectors and is intended for short to medium runs where flexibility and predictable signal behaviour are required. The cable assembly is suitable for use with test instruments, antennas, radio transceivers and networking hardware that accept SMA terminations.

Advantages

This SMA male to SMA female cable uses RG58/U coaxial construction to deliver consistent 50 Ω impedance and controlled signal transmission. The 5 m length balances reach with manageable signal attenuation for many laboratory, field and bench-top applications. The male-to-female SMA pairing allows easy connection to equipment and adapters while maintaining a compact, threaded connection that resists casual disconnection. The cable is flexible for routing in confined spaces and is designed for reliable mechanical and electrical contact at both connectors.

Suitable for

• Connecting RF test equipment and spectrum analyzers to antennas or devices
• Linking radio transceivers, modems and wireless gateways with SMA ports
• Temporary or semi-permanent antenna installations and lab setups
• Signal routing in networking hardware and prototyping environments

Key specifications

• Cable type: RG58/U coaxial construction
• Connector configuration: SMA male to SMA female
• Characteristic impedance: 50 ohm
• Length: 5 metres
• Typical use: RF signal transmission for short to medium distances
• Mechanical: flexible jacket suitable for routing and bench use

How to use

Inspect both SMA connectors and device ports to ensure they are clean and free of debris. Align the male and female SMA connectors and thread the coupling nut by hand until finger-tight; avoid over-tightening to prevent damage to connector threads. Use the cable for RF signal transmission between compatible 50 Ω devices, taking care to maintain minimal bending radius to reduce insertion loss. If adapters are required, choose impedance-matched components to preserve signal integrity.

Usage recommendations

Store the cable coiled without sharp bends and protect connector ends with caps when not in use. For critical measurements, verify cable condition and, if necessary, replace cables that show physical wear or increased insertion loss. Do not use the cable for applications that require impedances other than 50 Ω.
