Description

This IPEX1 to SMA Female connector cable is a fundamental RF accessory for IoT developers and system integrators. It bridges the gap between the ultra-miniature IPEX1 (U.FL) connectors found on most compact Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, and cellular modules and the industry-standard SMA female antenna ports. The 30cm RG1.13 coaxial cable is engineered for minimal signal attenuation, preserving RF integrity across common IoT frequency bands.

The flexible RG1.13 construction allows for easy routing in space-constrained applications, such as inside smart home devices, portable trackers, or embedded industrial gateways. The precise 11mm connector length ensures a positive, reliable mating with the IPEX1 socket, preventing disconnection from vibration or movement. This cable is a mandatory component for connecting external high-gain antennas to modules, directly impacting the wireless range and reliability of your IoT deployment.

Key Features

  • Direct interface from miniature IPEX1/U.FL module ports to standard SMA antenna connectors.
  • RG1.13 coaxial cable provides excellent shielding and low signal loss for high-frequency RF applications.
  • 30cm length offers optimal flexibility for internal device layout and antenna positioning.
  • Secure IPEX1 connector with 11mm length ensures a stable, vibration-resistant connection.
  • SMA female connector is compatible with a vast ecosystem of external Wi-Fi, cellular, and GPS antennas.
  • Essential for boosting signal range and performance in final product designs or development setups.
  • Ideal for use with ESP32, nRF52, Quectel, SIMCom, and other popular wireless modules.

Applications

  • Connecting external antennas to Wi-Fi/Bluetooth development boards (ESP32, Raspberry Pi HATs).
  • Extending range for 4G LTE, NB-IoT, or GSM/GPRS cellular modules in IoT gateways.
  • Providing antenna interfaces for compact GPS/GNSS receivers in tracking devices.
  • Final integration in smart home automation products, drones, and portable wireless devices.
  • Prototyping and testing setups requiring flexible antenna connections.

Frequently Asked Questions

What modules is this IPEX1 to SMA cable compatible with?

This cable is directly compatible with any wireless module or development board featuring a standard IPEX1 (also called U.FL) antenna port. This includes popular Wi-Fi/Bluetooth SoCs like the ESP32 series, nRF52840, and cellular modules from Quectel (EC25, BG96) or SIMCom (SIM7000, SIM7600). The SMA female end connects to a vast range of external antennas with SMA male connectors.

How do I properly connect the IPEX1 connector to my module?

Align the IPEX1 connector carefully with the module's socket, ensuring the center pin is oriented correctly. Apply gentle, straight downward pressure until you hear or feel a distinct click, indicating the connector is fully seated and locked. Never pull on the cable to disconnect; use a dedicated U.FL removal tool or carefully pry the connector up from its edges to avoid damaging the fragile port.

Is the 30cm length sufficient for my project, and what is RG1.13?

The 30cm length provides ample flexibility for routing within most enclosures, allowing you to position an external antenna optimally. RG1.13 is a specific, thin, and flexible type of coaxial cable with 50-ohm impedance. It offers a good balance between low signal loss (attenuation) and physical flexibility, making it ideal for internal wiring in compact IoT devices operating at frequencies up to 6 GHz.
