SMA-Female to SO-239 (UHF-Female) Pigtail Coax Cable
Stop putting stress on your handheld's antenna port! This flexible pigtail adapter is the safest way to connect your radio to an external antenna. A rigid adapter can act like a lever, but this pigtail's flexible RG316 cable absorbs all the strain, protecting your radio's SMA connector from damage.
It converts the SMA-Male port on your radio (the one with the center pin) into a standard SO-239 (UHF-Female) socket. This allows you to securely connect any PL-259 coax cable from your mobile, SOTA, or base station antenna.

🛡️
Provides Flexible Strain Relief: The #1 reason to use a pigtail. It prevents the weight and movement of a heavy coax cable from damaging your radio's antenna port.
-
🔌
Connector 1: SMA-Female: Features a center hole and threads on the *outside*. Designed to screw onto radios that have a center pin.
-
📡
Connector 2: SO-239 (UHF-Female): The standard "Mobile Ham / CB-style" connector. Accepts any standard PL-259 plug from your antenna's coax.
-
⚙️
High-Quality RG316 Cable: Uses durable, low-loss RG316 coax, perfect for jumpers and portable operations.
✅ 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).
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
⚠️ Does NOT Fit Yaesu, 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).
