RF Industries RP-3000-B (3-Pack) Reverse Polarity SMA Male Crimp Connector

The RF Industries RP-3000-B is a reverse-polarity SMA male crimp plug engineered for use with RG-174/U, RG-316/U, and Cable Group B coaxial cables. Featuring a straight-body profile, nickel-plated brass body, gold-plated center contact, and PTFE dielectric, this connector is built to deliver consistent impedance integrity and low-loss signal transfer in RF assemblies. The crimp attachment style ensures a secure, repeatable mechanical and electrical termination suited for production environments and field installations alike. Supplied in a convenient three-pack, the RP-3000-B is a practical solution for builds requiring reverse-polarity SMA interfaces on fine-gauge coaxial cable.

Key features & benefits

• Reverse-Polarity SMA Male Interface — Complies with FCC Part 15 reverse-polarity requirements, providing the correct mating interface for wireless access points, routers, and other equipment that mandate RP-SMA connectivity.
• Crimp Attachment Style — The crimp termination method creates a mechanically robust, low-resistance bond to the cable conductor and braid, supporting consistent electrical performance across the service life of the assembly.
• Gold-Plated Center Contact — Gold plating on the center contact resists oxidation and corrosion, maintaining low contact resistance and stable signal integrity over repeated mating cycles.
• Nickel-Plated Body — The nickel body plating provides corrosion resistance and durable surface hardness, protecting the connector in demanding installation environments.
• PTFE Dielectric — Polytetrafluoroethylene dielectric offers excellent electrical insulation properties, low dielectric loss, and thermal stability across a wide operating temperature range.
• RG-174/U and RG-316/U Compatibility — Designed specifically for Cable Group B cables including RG-174/U and RG-316/U, ensuring proper crimp dimensions and reliable cable retention without guesswork.
• Three-Pack Quantity — Packaged in a set of three connectors, the RP-3000-B reduces per-unit cost and keeps spare connectors on hand for prototyping, repair, or production runs.
