Connector Design
Plug Connection at FAKRA And Threaded Coupling at SMA
The FAKRA Z code male plug mates with a compatible FAKRA female connector. At the opposite end, the SMA male coupling nut threads onto a standard SMA female connector. The two ends engage differently, so check the FAKRA housing fit and leave enough room to reach and turn the SMA coupling nut.
A Short Lead Between Nearby Connections
The 15cm RG316 lead keeps the transition between FAKRA and SMA near the equipment. When a bracket sits between the two connections, measure along the path the cable will follow. Allow enough space for a gradual bend so that seating the module does not pull the cable tight or press it against the bracket.
Applications
Vehicle GPS Antenna Integration
Connect a GPS antenna lead with a compatible FAKRA female connector to a receiver with a standard SMA female antenna input. The short pigtail fits layouts where both connection points sit near the receiver and the assembly meets the system's RF requirements.
RF Module Replacement
If a replacement module uses an SMA female antenna port and the existing antenna lead ends in a compatible FAKRA female connector, the pigtail can join the two at the module. With matching interfaces and enough cable reach, the original antenna lead can stay in place.
Fit Check and Ordering
FAKRA Housing and Keying
Confirm that the mating end on the antenna lead or module is a FAKRA female connector that accepts the FAKRA Z code male plug. Check the housing shape and keying on the actual connector to make sure the plug can seat fully.
Standard SMA Female Port
The SMA male plug mates with a standard SMA female connector. If the equipment uses both SMA and RP SMA, compare the center contact and the thread on the specific port you plan to use.
Cable Reach and Installation Clearance
Measure the route between the two connection points, including any turns around brackets or trim. Confirm that the 15cm RG316 lead reaches both ends without tension and leaves enough room to turn the SMA coupling nut.
Part Number and Quote Details
Include part number AC-F03ZSP-S01SP-316-15 and the required quantity in your inquiry. If the mating connector is unclear at either end, attach a closeup photo or drawing of that interface for review.
Product FAQ
Will the SMA plug mate with an RP SMA port ?
This assembly uses a standard SMA male plug and requires a standard SMA female mating connector. Check the center contact as well as the thread when identifying the equipment port.
What is the difference between this cable and the 20cm RG174 version ?
This part uses a 15cm RG316 lead. The 20cm version uses RG174. Both have a FAKRA Z code male end and an SMA male end, so check the part number when the cable type or length is specified on your drawing.
Can I keep the original antenna lead when replacing a receiver ?
Yes, if the existing lead and replacement receiver have the matching female connectors and the 15cm pigtail reaches along the installed route. The cable can then be inserted at the receiver without reterminating the original lead.
Can I connect the SMA end to the GPS antenna instead of the receiver ?
Yes. The 15cm RG316 pigtail can carry RF signals in either direction. Connect the SMA male plug to an antenna with a standard SMA female connector and the FAKRA Z code male plug to a compatible FAKRA female port on the receiver.
