Description
Pasternack’s PE91177 Low PIM type N male to SMA female adapter is part of our full line of RF components available for
same-day shipping. Our type N to SMA adapter has a male to female gender configuration in a Low PIM design. PE91177 type
N male to SMA female adapter operates to 6 GHz. The Pasternack RF adapter provides excellent VSWR of 1.2:1 maximum
and passive intermodulation of -160 dBc maximum.
RF adapters are often used to enable connections between two connector types that would otherwise not mate. Certain
adapter configurations can also be used to protect connectors on expensive equipment where the number of connect/
disconnect cycles is high. An RF, microwave or millimeter wave adapter is connected to the equipment, and the commonly
changed connection is made with the adapter which can be easily replaced when it wears out after high usage; such adapters
are referred to as connector savers. Pasternack also offers bulkhead, panel mount, hermetically sealed, reverse polarity, and
isolated ground adapter varieties to serve all of your RF, microwave and millimeter wave needs.
