Setup, Compatibility & Care
To install, ensure your device is powered off to prevent short-circuiting during the physical connection process. Simply thread the SMA Male connector into your device port and the RP-SMA Female end to your antenna, hand-tightening them until snug—do not overtighten with tools, as this can strip the threads or damage the internal pin.
Compatibility Note: Always verify your device port gender. SMA and RP-SMA look similar but have different pin configurations (SMA features a center pin, while RP-SMA features a center socket).
Care Instructions:
- Avoid sharp kinks or tight 90-degree bends, as this can degrade signal quality.
- Keep connectors clean and free of dust or debris.
- Store in a cool, dry place when not in use.
