Description
Pasternack’s PE9486 precision SMA female to type N female bulkhead 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 type N adapter has a female to female gender configuration in a precision design. PE9486 SMA female
to type N female adapter operates to 18 GHz. The Pasternack RF adapter provides excellent VSWR of 1.15:1 maximum. This
RF SMA to type N bulkhead adapter allows designers to create external connections on their product enclosures, and can be
used in a variety of other rack mount and panel mount applications.
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.
