Description

This SMA Female to IPEX1 connector cable is a critical RF accessory for integrating external antennas into compact wireless systems. The RG1.13 coaxial cable provides a 30cm flexible link with low signal attenuation, maintaining impedance matching for frequencies commonly used in IoT communication. The SMA female end allows direct connection to a wide range of standard-gain antennas, while the miniature IPEX1 plug interfaces directly with the surface-mount connectors found on most Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, and cellular modules.

Engineered for reliable signal transmission, this pigtail cable minimizes VSWR and insertion loss, ensuring maximum RF power transfer between your antenna and transceiver. Its compact and flexible design is ideal for routing within tight enclosures for drones, handheld devices, industrial sensors, and smart home automation products, providing a robust and detachable antenna solution.

Key Features

  • Direct SMA Female to IPEX1 (U.FL) interface for modular antenna systems.
  • 30cm RG1.13 coaxial cable offers excellent flexibility and minimal space requirements.
  • Low-loss construction ensures efficient RF power transfer for 2.4GHz and 5GHz bands.
  • IPEX1 connector provides a secure, click-lock connection to common wireless module pads.
  • SMA female connector enables quick attachment and detachment of various external antennas.
  • Ideal for prototyping and final product integration in IoT and embedded wireless designs.
  • Suitable for use with Wi-Fi, Bluetooth/BLE, GPS/GNSS, Zigbee, and 4G LTE modules.

Applications

Frequently Asked Questions

What modules is this SMA to IPEX1 cable compatible with?

This cable is directly compatible with any wireless module featuring a surface-mount IPEX1 (U.FL) socket. This includes common IoT chipsets like the ESP32, ESP8266, nRF24L01+, nRF52840 (BLE), SIM7000/7600 (4G), and Quectel GNSS modules. The SMA female end connects to standard 50-ohm antennas with SMA male connectors for Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, or cellular bands.

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

Align the IPEX1 connector squarely over the module's surface-mount socket. Apply gentle, even pressure straight down until you hear or feel a distinct click, indicating the internal latch has engaged. To disconnect, gently pull the black plastic housing straight up—do not pull on the cable. Misalignment or side pressure can damage the delicate socket pins. Ensure the module is securely mounted during connection.

What is the typical frequency range and impedance of this RG1.13 cable?

The RG1.13 coaxial cable is designed for RF applications and typically supports frequencies from DC up to at least 6 GHz, covering common IoT bands like 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi/Bluetooth and 5 GHz Wi-Fi. Its characteristic impedance is 50 ohms, which matches the standard impedance of most wireless transceivers and antennas, minimizing signal reflection and power loss for optimal performance.
