50cm IPEX1 to SMA Female RF Cable RG1.13

This cable is directly compatible with any wireless module featuring a standard IPEX1 (U.FL) antenna port. This includes popular Wi-Fi/Bluetooth SoCs like the ESP32, ESP8266, and nRF52 series, as well as cellular modules (SIM7600, SIM800), GPS receivers, and LoRa transceivers that use this miniature connector. The SMA female end connects to a vast range of external antennas with SMA male plugs for testing and deployment.

Align the IPEX1 connector carefully with the socket on your module, ensuring the center pin and outer shield are oriented correctly. Apply gentle, straight downward pressure until you hear or feel a distinct click, indicating the connector is fully seated and latched. To disconnect, pull straight up on the plastic connector body—never pull on the cable itself, as this can damage the delicate latch or solder joints on the module's PCB.

While exact specifications depend on the manufacturer, RG1.13 coaxial cable is typically rated for frequencies up to 6 GHz, making it suitable for Wi-Fi 6 (5 GHz), Bluetooth, 4G LTE, and sub-6 GHz 5G applications. Its 50-ohm impedance and low loss per meter ensure minimal signal degradation, supporting high data rates for protocols like 802.11ac/ax. For millimeter-wave frequencies above 6 GHz, a lower-loss cable type like RG178 may be required.
