No Space? No Problem! The 90° Angle for Your Setup
Is your WiFi Router directly against the wall or is the Antenna connector of your WiFi card inconveniently placed? Everyone knows the problem: the rigid Antenna Cable can hardly be bent, and the Antenna protrudes awkwardly. This RP-SMA 90-degree angle adapter is your elegant solution. It allows you to connect Antennas or cables at a right angle, ensuring a clean installation and preventing dangerous kinking of the Cable. This way, you not only protect your Cable but also optimize the alignment of your antenna for the best possible reception.
The Bodyguard for Your Connectors: Durability by Design
With frequent attaching and detaching of Antennas, one thing suffers most: the fixed connector on your expensive Router or PC. This adapter acts as a clever 'Connector Saver'. You screw it firmly onto the device connector once, and from then on, any wear and tear only occurs on the adapter. Should it show signs of wear after hundreds of mating cycles, you simply replace the inexpensive adapter – and not the entire device. A small accessory with a big impact on the longevity of your hardware.
Maximum Performance: Why Every Decibel Counts
In high-frequency technology, every connection is a potential weak point. That's why this Coaxial Adapter has been designed with the highest quality in mind. With an extremely low attenuation of only about 0.5 dB and an excellent Standing Wave Ratio (VSWR), your signal is transmitted almost loss-free. The gold-plated contacts ensure optimal conductivity and prevent corrosion, while the high-quality PTFE insulator ensures clean signal integrity even at high frequencies. Rely on a stable and fast connection without compromise.
RP-SMA vs. SMA: The Small Difference with Big Impact
Caution, risk of confusion! This is an RP-SMA Adapter (Reverse Polarity). This means the male connector has an inner thread and a female contact (socket), while the female connector has an outer thread and a male contact (pin). This is the standard for almost all common WiFi devices from manufacturers like AVM (Fritzbox), TP-Link, and Others. It is NOT compatible with the standard SMA connector, where it is exactly the opposite. So please check before purchasing whether your device has an RP-SMA connector to avoid wrong purchases.
Strengths & Notes at a Glance
- Pro: Elegantly solves space problems in wall-mounted installations.
- Pro: Prevents cable breakage due to sharp kinking of the Antenna Cable.
- Pro: Protects the device connector from wear as a 'Connector Saver'.
- Pro: Nearly loss-free signal transmission thanks to minimal attenuation (approx. 0.5 dB).

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Will this adapter also fit my standard SMA connector?
Absolutely not! Even if the thread mechanically fits, the inner conductors are exactly reversed (Reverse Polarity). You would end up connecting two pins or two sockets, and you wouldn't get an electrical connection. So, please check carefully if your device truly has an RP-SMA connector, as is common with most WiFi devices.
Will I lose signal strength or speed due to the 90° angle?
Don't worry! Theoretically, every connection has a tiny signal loss. However, with this high-quality adapter, the attenuation is so minimal, at about 0.5 dB, that you'll notice absolutely no difference in your WiFi speed or signal strength in practice. A severely kinked cable without the adapter would be much more detrimental to your signal.
What does 'RP' actually stand for in RP-SMA?
'RP' stands for 'Reverse Polarity'. This has nothing to do with the signal itself, but describes the reversed design of the contacts. With a standard SMA connector, the plug has a pin and the socket has a receptacle. With your RP-SMA adapter, it's exactly the opposite: the plug has the receptacle and the socket has the pin.
Can I also use the adapter for my 5 GHz WiFi Antenna?
Yes, absolutely! The adapter is designed for frequencies up to at least 6 GHz. This easily covers all common WiFi bands – whether 2.4 GHz, 5 GHz, or even the new 6 GHz band for Wi-Fi 6E.
Do I need special tools to tighten the adapter?
No, for normal home use, it's perfectly sufficient to simply hand-tighten the adapter. It should be snug, but you don't need to use excessive force. A torque wrench is only truly necessary in a professional environment.
Are the contacts gold-plated, and why is that an advantage for me?
Yes, the contacts are gold-plated. That's a true quality feature! Gold not only conducts excellently but also prevents corrosion (rust). This ensures you'll have a permanently stable and loss-free connection, even after a long time and in higher humidity.
