Description
Pasternack’s PE9473 SMA male to MCX plug adapter is part of our full line of RF components available for same-day
shipping. The SMA connector mates mechanically with commercially available 3.5mm and 2.92mm (K) connectors. Our SMA
to MCX adapter has a male to plug gender configuration.
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.
