SMA-Female to SO-239 (UHF-Female) Coax Adapter for Baofeng & Quansheng
This is the adapter you've been looking for. If you own a Baofeng, Quansheng, or similar handheld, this is the essential adapter you need to connect to an external mobile or base station antenna for a massive boost in range.
This adapter converts the SMA-Male port on your radio (the one with the center pin, flush to the radio body) into a standard SO-239 (UHF-Female) socket. This allows you to securely connect any standard PL-259 coaxial cable from your mag mount, go-kit, or home antenna system.

🔌
Connector 1: SMA-Female: Features a center hole and threads on the *outside*. Designed to screw into radios that have a center pin.

📡
Connector 2: SO-239 (UHF-Female): The standard "Mobile Ham / CB-style" connector found on most antenna mounts. Accepts any standard PL-259 plug.

Massively Increase Your Range: Stops you from relying on the small "rubber duck" antenna and lets you connect to a high-gain roof or vehicle antenna.
✅ Will This Fit My Radio? (SMA-Male Radios)
This SMA-Female adapter fits most popular Chinese handhelds that have an SMA-Male antenna port (a port with a center pin that is flush to the radio body).
This adapter is a perfect fit for:
- Baofeng: UV-5R, UV-82, BF-F8HP
- Quansheng: UV-K5, UV-K5(8)
- Retevis: RT5R, RT1, RT2, RT8, RT81, RA79

⚠️ Does NOT Fit Kenwood, Icom, or RT85
This adapter does NOT fit most Yaesu, Icom, Anytone, Wouxun, or Retevis RT85 / RA89 radios, as they use the *opposite* (SMA-Female) connector on the radio body (with a center hole).
