"SMA" to "PL-259" Adapter Cable

'SMA' to 'PL-259' Adapter Cable
  • Allows Base & Mobile Antennas to Connect to HandHeld Antenna Jack.
  • Approx. 3ft Cable with SO-239 on one end, & SMA male on other.
  • High Quality RG-58.
  • Fits most Yaesu, Icom, Alinco, Kenwood & TYT Amateur Radios.
  • Keeps Strain & weight off & away from HT's Antenna jack.

...to connect my Uniden MHS125 handheld marine VHF radio to my Shakespeare 8' fixed vhf antenna. This SMA to PL-259 adapter cable was a perfect fit for my marine communication system project. My goal was to enhance the reception and transmission capacity of my vhf handheld radio by attaching it to the fixed mount vhf antenna on my boat. This 3' cable is flexible enough to continue to permit comfortable use of the handheld while attached to the fixed mount antenna. The SMA connection is just right, with no worry of it either coming loose or being so rigid that it could damage the connection.

I have had many of these adapters from other manufacturers, and they have all been very inferior to these. They all wear out at the stress points. I use mine to adapt my HT (walkie-talkie style) ham radio to my full-size antenna that is mounted to my car or truck. These are FAR superior to the others that I have had and I haven't worn one out yet. I bought three when I made this purchase in anticipation of them becoming non-functional after a few months of use. So far, after more than a year, all three are still in use and look and work great. Don't hesitate to purchase these as they are, in my opinion and experience, a great product.

Correct cable connections for my new Wouxun KG UV6D radio. This is a change from prior Wouxun products and glad they have switched to standard male SMA connection like other products.

The SMA connector is a male. The Radio I have is a Female for the antenna Connection. Otherwise this is a good cable and I will find a place to use it. The delivery was fantastic and on time.

This is nothing at all like similar adapter cables I've owned in the past. All of those were flimsy, the connections had stress points that broke, and the wire gauge was so thin that it likely caused a SWR due to the impedance mismatch to the wire it was connecting to. This is a quality adapter. I'm hitting distant repeaters that I couldn't before, and I'm also getting signal reports that were far better than I was getting in the past. All because of the upgrade in quality of this adapter. Definitely recommended.

**Update 1-26-2013** I'm still marveling at how much better my signal is with this adapter than it ever was in the past. I am hitting repeaters 35-40 miles away on 5 watts on my handheld VHF 2 meter radio. With this adapter connecting the radio to my mobile antenna, I'm making it in with a good, clean signal. Glad I bought this, because it improved my antenna performance easily 100%.
