UHF(F) TO UHF(F) 1″ ADAPTOR 4GHZ

A UHF Female to UHF Female 1″ adapter designed for 4 GHz is used to connect two UHF female connectors with a 1-inch (typically 1-inch long) barrel length. This type of adapter allows you to connect two UHF female connectors, effectively extending the reach between two UHF-connected devices or cables.

Description:

This adapter features two UHF female connectors connected by a 1-inch long barrel, allowing for a direct connection between two UHF female connectors. It is designed to handle frequencies up to 4 GHz, making it suitable for various RF applications.

Specifications:

1. Frequency Range:
   • Up to 4 GHz: Effective up to 4 GHz, ensuring it is suitable for many RF and microwave applications. Confirm that this frequency range meets your specific requirements.
2. Impedance:
   • 50 Ohms: Standard impedance for RF systems, ensuring proper signal matching and minimizing reflections.
3. Connector Types:
   • UHF Female: Both connectors are UHF female, featuring a center socket and a threaded coupling mechanism. These connectors receive the pin from UHF male connectors.
4. Insertion Loss:
   • Typically ≤ 0.5 dB: Indicates 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 less signal reflection and better performance.
6. VSWR (Voltage Standing Wave Ratio):
   • Typically ≤ 1.5: Shows 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 across a wide range of environmental conditions.
9. Size and Weight:
   • 1-Inch Barrel Length: Designed with a 1-inch length to extend the connection between two UHF female connectors. The compact design ensures durability and reliability.

Example Part Number:

• Manufacturer: RF component suppliers like Amphenol, Pasternack, or similar companies offer these adapters.
• Part Number Example: You might find models like Pasternack PE4450 or similar. Verify the exact part number and specifications with the supplier.

Applications:

• RF Systems: Connects two UHF female connectors, extending the reach or providing a direct connection between devices.
• Communication Equipment: Useful for integrating or linking equipment that uses UHF connectors.
• Test and Measurement: Common in RF testing setups where a direct connection between UHF female connectors is needed.

Visual Inspection:

• Connector Compatibility: Ensure that both UHF female connectors are properly aligned and threaded for secure connections. The 1-inch length should be verified to ensure it meets your application needs.

When selecting a UHF Female to UHF Female 1″ adapter, ensure it meets your frequency, impedance, and performance requirements. Always consult datasheets and specifications provided by the manufacturer to confirm compatibility and optimal performance for your specific application.
