Rf Industries RP-3000-1C Reverse Polarity SMA Male connector to crimp on RG-58/U

The RF Industries RP-3000-1C is a Reverse Polarity SMA Male connector designed to terminate RG-58/U coaxial cable via a crimp assembly method. Featuring gold-plated body and contact surfaces along with a PTFE dielectric insulator, this connector delivers reliable electrical continuity and corrosion resistance in a compact, field-proven form factor. The reverse polarity SMA interface is widely used in wireless networking and RF distribution applications where standard polarity connectors must be intentionally differentiated to prevent incorrect mating. Crimp termination provides a consistent, repeatable connection that holds up to vibration and repeated handling in both bench and field environments.

Key features & benefits

• Reverse Polarity SMA Male Interface — The RP-SMA Male configuration provides the reverse polarity gender convention required by many consumer and commercial wireless devices, ensuring proper mating while preventing inadvertent connection with standard SMA hardware.
• Crimp Termination — Crimp assembly delivers a secure, mechanically stable termination onto RG-58/U cable, producing consistent RF performance and resistance to pull-out forces encountered in installed and mobile deployments.
• Gold-Plated Body and Contact — Both the connector body and center contact carry gold plating, offering excellent conductivity, low contact resistance, and long-term protection against oxidation and corrosion.
• PTFE Dielectric Insulator — Polytetrafluoroethylene dielectric material provides low signal loss, high temperature stability, and excellent electrical isolation between the center conductor and outer body across a broad range of operating conditions.
• Compatibility with RG-58/U and Belden 8240 — Engineered specifically for RG-58/U coaxial cable, including the Belden 8240 equivalent, ensuring precise dimensional fit and optimal RF performance without cable modification.
