Wireles: What is a Reverse Polarized Connector?

Apr 06, 2019



What is a Reverse Polarized Connector? A reversepolarized coaxial connector alters a standard polarized connector interface byutilizing a male center pin in a jack body or a female center pin in a plugbody. Reverse polarity connectors are sometimes used in an attempt to"key" connections so that incorrect connections are not possible.This also prevents mating with a standard connector. Common reverse polarizedinterfaces are RP-SMA and RP-TNC.

When orderingreverse polarity connectors, always refer to the body as Plug or Jack in thedescription (eg, Reverse Polarity TNC Plug).
Never use "Male" or "Female" when describing a reversepolarity connector (Male and Female should only be used to describe the pin).This helps eliminate any ordering errors.
More connector types areavailable.
