UHF(F) TO N(F) ADAPTOR 4GHZ

This adapter features a UHF female connector on one end and an N female connector on the other end. It allows for the connection of equipment or cables that use UHF connectors to those using N connectors, accommodating frequency ranges up to 4 GHz.

Specifications:

1. Frequency Range:
   • Up to 4 GHz: Designed to operate effectively up to 4 GHz, making it suitable for many RF applications. Verify that this frequency range is appropriate for your specific needs.
2. Impedance:
   • 50 Ohms: Standard impedance for RF applications, ensuring proper signal matching and minimizing reflections. Note that UHF connectors traditionally use 50 ohms, but it’s always good to confirm for specific applications.
3. Connector Types:
   • UHF Female: Features a center socket and threaded coupling mechanism. The UHF female connector receives the center pin from a UHF male connector.
   • N Female: Features a center socket and threaded coupling mechanism. The N female connector receives the center pin from an N male connector.
4. Insertion Loss:
   • Typically ≤ 0.5 dB: Represents the amount of signal power lost as it passes through the adapter. Lower insertion loss is preferable for maintaining signal integrity.
5. Return Loss:
   • Typically ≥ 15 dB: Reflects how well the adapter maintains impedance matching. Higher return loss values indicate better performance with less signal reflection.
6. VSWR (Voltage Standing Wave Ratio):
   • Typically ≤ 1.5: Indicates how well the adapter maintains impedance and minimizes signal reflections. Lower VSWR values are better for preserving signal quality.
7. Construction Material:
   • Body: Usually made from durable materials such as brass or stainless steel.
   • Plating: Often gold or nickel-plated to ensure good conductivity and resistance to corrosion.
8. Temperature Range:
   • Typically -55°C to +165°C: Ensures reliable operation in a variety of environmental conditions.
9. Size and Weight:
   • Compact Design: Designed to be compact and robust, suitable for integration into RF systems with space constraints.

Example Part Number:

• Manufacturer: RF component suppliers such as Amphenol, Pasternack, or similar companies offer these types of adapters.
• Part Number Example: Models like Pasternack PE4451 or similar may be used. Always check the exact part number and specifications with the supplier.

Applications:

• RF Systems: Connects equipment or cables with UHF and N-type connectors, facilitating integration in RF systems.
• Communication Equipment: Useful in systems where different connector types are involved.
• Test and Measurement: Commonly used in RF testing setups where transitioning between UHF and N-type connectors is necessary.

Visual Inspection:

• Connector Compatibility: Ensure that both UHF and N-type female connectors are properly aligned and threaded for a secure connection.

When selecting a UHF Female to N Female adapter, ensure it meets your frequency, impedance, and performance requirements. Always refer to datasheets and specifications provided by the manufacturer to confirm compatibility and optimal performance for your specific application.
