Antenna Cable - RG178 - IPEX-F TO SMA-F Waterproof 15CM
Antenna Cable - RG178 - IPEX-F TO SMA-F Waterproof 15CM
Antenna cable for connecting an SMA antenna to a Meshtastic® radio with an iPEX-F connection. Compatible with RAK WisBlock, Heltec V3, Heltec T114, LILYgo T-Beam Supreme, and more. Perfect for DIY outdoor Meshtastic solar enclosure radios to connect your internal radio to an external antenna. This is a direct replacement cable for the ones used in the Atlavox Beacon enclosure. It uses RG178 cable, which is thicker and has less signal loss than the cable included in the RAK Meshtastic Starter Kit.
iPEX-F connector snaps onto an iPEX-M connector typically found on Meshtastic PCB radio circuit boards. The three built-in brass retaining tabs securely lock onto the circular iPEX-M connector without needing any additional hardware.
SMA Female includes a wider 11mm hex base with an external threaded stem and internal hole to accept an SMA-M antenna. A machined channel for the included silicone o-ring creates a seal against the inside of the enclosure when installed. Includes an o-ring, toothed washer, split-ring washer, and nut to mount the connector to an enclosure bulkhead. Heat shrink strain relief on cable.
