Description

The LWC-GSM-MM-03 is a purpose-built RF coaxial cable assembly designed to establish reliable connections between GSM cellular modules and external antennas. Its 1-meter RG58 cable core ensures minimal signal attenuation across the critical 824-960MHz and 1710-1980MHz frequency ranges, which are essential for 2G and 3G network operations. The assembly is terminated with standard SMA male plugs, providing a secure, screw-on interface compatible with a vast array of cellular modems and panel/rod antennas.

Engineered with a 50-ohm characteristic impedance and a voltage standing wave ratio (VSWR) below 2.0, this cable minimizes signal reflections and power loss, ensuring efficient RF energy transfer. With a power handling capability of 10 watts and a linear polarization, it is suited for both low-power IoT deployments and higher-power telemetry applications. Its compact form factor and durable construction make it an ideal drop-in solution for field installations, mobile trackers, and fixed industrial cellular gateways.

Key Features

  • Dual-band GSM/2G/3G frequency coverage for versatile cellular connectivity.
  • SMA male plug connectors ensure a secure, threaded connection resistant to vibration.
  • RG58 coaxial cable offers a balanced trade-off between flexibility, durability, and signal integrity.
  • Low VSWR (less than 2.0) design maximizes power transfer and minimizes reflected power.
  • 50-ohm impedance standard matches most GSM module RF outputs and antenna inputs.
  • 10-watt power handling supports both low-power IoT sensors and higher-power transmitters.
  • Linear polarization aligns with standard vertical antenna installations.
  • Compact 1-meter length ideal for short-run connections within enclosures or between nearby devices.

Applications

  • Connecting external antennas to GSM/GPRS/3G modules (e.g., SIM800, SIM900, SIM7600 series) in IoT devices.
  • RF link for asset tracking units, fleet management systems, and personal safety devices.
  • Extending antenna placement for industrial cellular routers, gateways, and remote telemetry stations.
  • Providing a replacement or extension cable for RFID readers operating in similar frequency bands.
  • General-purpose RF interconnection in prototyping, testing, and field deployment of wireless systems.

Frequently Asked Questions

What devices is the LWC-GSM-MM-03 cable compatible with?

This cable is compatible with any GSM, GPRS, or 3G module or device featuring a standard female SMA jack antenna port. Common applications include connecting to SIM800, SIM900, SIM7600 series cellular modules, various IoT trackers, industrial routers, and RFID readers that operate within the 824-960MHz and 1710-1980MHz frequency bands. Ensure your device's connector is an SMA female (jack) to accept this cable's male plug.

How do I install this SMA cable onto my GSM module?

First, locate the SMA female antenna connector on your GSM module. Align the male plug on the LWC-GSM-MM-03 cable with the port, ensuring it is straight. Gently thread the connector clockwise until it is finger-tight. Avoid using excessive force or tools to overtighten, as this can damage the threads or the module's internal port. For optimal performance, route the cable away from other high-speed digital lines or power sources to minimize potential interference on the RF signal path.

Can this cable be used for 4G LTE or 5G applications?

No, this cable is not recommended for 4G LTE or 5G applications. Its specified frequency range is 824-960MHz and 1710-1980MHz, which primarily covers 2G (GSM) and 3G (UMTS) bands. Modern 4G LTE and 5G networks utilize additional and higher frequency bands (e.g., 700MHz, 1800MHz, 2100MHz, 2600MHz, and above 3GHz) where this cable's performance is not characterized. Using it outside its specified range may result in higher signal attenuation and degraded network performance.
