15cm RP-SMA Female to IPEX1 Cable RG1.13

Description

This RP-SMA female to IPEX1 pigtail cable is a critical RF interconnect for developers integrating wireless communication modules into final products. The RG1.13 coaxial cable maintains a consistent 50-ohm impedance over its 15cm length, preserving signal integrity for frequencies used in 5G, 4G LTE, Wi-Fi, and LoRaWAN applications. The reverse-polarity SMA female connector prevents mating with standard SMA antennas, a common compliance feature for consumer wireless equipment.

The IPEX1 (also known as U.FL) connector is a miniature, push-on interface found on virtually all compact wireless modules from ESP32-based boards to Quectel/SIMCom cellular modems and u-blox GNSS receivers. This cable enables the transition from this fragile onboard connector to a robust, threaded RP-SMA port, allowing for the use of larger, higher-gain external antennas to significantly improve wireless range and reliability in IoT deployments.
