Low PIM QMA adapter mates to N-type interface for wireless DAS infrastructure

The RQA-5478_225x220QMA (RQA-5478) connectors from RF Connectors, a division of RF Industries (NASDAQ: RFIL), feature a snap lock connection as an alternative to the SMA connector with a threaded connection. The QMA connector, with a quick connect/disconnect feature along with excellent electrical performance up to 6 GHz, is used in wireless infrastructure applications including distributed antenna systems (DAS).

The RQA-5478 between series adapter features a QMA female to N male interface that will allow connection of a QMA male terminated cable assemble to equipment with an N female connector. The adapter is manufactured with a machined brass body, plated in a durable tri-metal (white-bronze) finish. The contact is gold plated. The adapter is rated for low PIM performance of ≤-155 dBc using 2 tones at 20 watts.

The new connector is available from RF Connectors distributors throughout the US, Canada and Mexico.
