Title says it has the SMA female connection, but several review say it's a male connection. Which is it?

The antenna I bought has a Female SMA connection which works out well for me since the radio (UV5R) has the male SMA connection. The antenna comes with a female SMA connection, and the antenna works really great.

I use this one with my Bao Feng UV5+ as my in-car mobile rig - does great - I get regular 9x9 signal reports. It has a female SMA connector. Does a great job. Only downside was the packaging - the box they shipped it in shifted a little and the short antenna was bent - but I just bent it back with no ill effects.

DEAR UNPAIDBILL: To answer your question on the SMA connector supplied with this antenna is a { female } if you are looking to use this on any of the Baofeng UV5R type radios the SMA Connector input to these radios are { male } see photos showing the duck antenna is a female as well. this antenna is designed for these type of radios and works very well for its size and cost. I hope I have answered your question, DALE/ AMAZON CUSTOMER

It is a female. Some may think that it is a male because it screws into the radio were the antenna goes. But I can assure you that it is a female. I bought it for a Baofeng UV-5R. Bryan

the center pin is on the radio (male). the antannae connection has a hole in the center (female) connection. disregard what it looks like from the outside of the connector. I have the UV 82 and this antannae.

no - it has no male/female threads - the white plastic connector is smooth plastic to be used only with a pool hose.

Personally, I went with the SMA Female to BNC then a second adaptor cable (BNC to SO-239). Hope that helps.

I am looking at my 5.8G cheapdrone antennas right now. Both antennas are equipped with Male-RPSMA connectors. this means " no pin in center and threads on the inside of the connector collar, which can spin around." but they DO come with a pair of adapters (that change the connecter to a Male-SMA ),and one 90 degree adapter. note: SMA is the style of connect and the RP means "reverse polarity" which is a really not a very good way of saying that the pin is in the opposite connector body compared to a standard SMA connector setup.

I think....the male mount is the part that goes into the bike, and gets a bolt put through it to secure it. The splined adapter part is build into to board and allows you to pivot it to any position you like. They sell different male mounts for wider or thicker male mounting part for bolting on the bike. Hope that makes sense. They are fantastic. I love mine - they look great and easy to install.

Depending on your parts and pieces on hand, either male or female can be fitted to either end. Most users put the female end on the compressor itself, and this determines the placement across the rest of the system. The M Style is universally produced. Milton makes them, as well as many others. They should all work together with no problems.

It's a gender-bender. It lets you adapt the battery connector to a different pin-out or type.

I'm sorry, I do not know what SMA is? I just matched pictures to what I had in hand.

This is a one piece item. It will plug into another one just like it. There is no male/female with this type of connector.

It's an injector / filter, so you you put power in (after the RJ45) at one end and extract it on the other (before the RJ45). So, you get a male and a female power end and of course the RJ45 is straight through male. Did that make any damn sense? I've not used mine yet, but I do like the build quality.

DeeKay , You have your "sexes" reversed! This is a 30 pin male adapter with a female micro usb input. I use mine in order to have one USB cable--B male to micro male--connected to my PC that I can connect to my Android--without the adapter--and also to my iPhone--with the connector.

The antena I replaced on my range extender was a " RP-SMA Male Connector " which means the connector has inside threads with a female inner sleeve contact. This is the same typeas on some of my other wieless routers..

It is not Reverse Polarity (RP) - SMA-RP connectors are usually used on WiFi devices - that was done to prevent use of external antennas on WiFi equipment not so designed. NOTE: connector polarity refers to the connecting pin/sockets - connectors with a pin are male and those with a socket are female. Here is the "rub" - connectors with Pins usually have a "female" housing to protect the pins and connectors with sockets usually have a "male" housing such that it fits into the mating connector. Reverse Polarity connectors are those that are the opposite. In this case - notice that the inner connector is female and the threads are on the outside and therefore male - thus NOT RP.

Yes, the antenna can unscrewed and will connect with any SMA female type adapter.

Look online for an SMA male to SMA female cable, sometimes referred to as a pigtail. I found some on Amazon.

There is not a male and female connector. There is just one SB50 connector which serves as both male and female. This is done by turning the connector over. I do not know about the "2 piece set".
