Coaxial Connector ShiverPeaks 82002 metal — coax connector for antenna and RF cable connections

Coaxial connector ShiverPeaks 82002 metal is a full-metal RF connector designed to provide a stable, low-loss interface for antenna and coaxial cable connections. Engineered for mechanical robustness, this coax connector is suitable for repairing or extending antenna leads, connecting external antennas to routers, radio equipment and other broadband devices where a durable metal coax interface is required.

Advantages

The metal construction gives enhanced mechanical strength and improved durability compared with plastic alternatives, resisting deformation and wear during repeated connections. Its standardized coaxial geometry ensures consistent electrical contact and low reflection at typical Wi‑Fi and RF frequencies, supporting reliable signal transfer. The connector is compact and straightforward to fit to existing coax cables, making it practical for field repairs and installations.

Suitable for

• Repairing or extending antenna leads on routers and access points
• Connecting external antennas to Wi‑Fi, LTE or other RF devices
• Integrating with radio equipment, receivers and transmitters
• Field installations where a metal, durable coax interface is needed

Key specifications

• Construction: full metal housing for enhanced mechanical durability
• Application: antenna and coax cable connections for Wi‑Fi, RF and broadband
• Compatibility: designed to mate with standard 9.5 mm coax cable ends and typical antenna terminations
• Signal characteristics: low-loss design suitable for common RF frequency bands used in wireless networking
• Mounting: inline/inline cable fitting for direct cable-to-antenna connections

How to use

Strip the coax cable jacket and prepare the inner conductor and shield according to the connector’s mechanical requirements. Slide the connector parts onto the cable, ensure correct alignment of the inner conductor and outer shield, then secure the connector body by crimping or screwing as appropriate for the connector variant. After assembly, verify mechanical stability and continuity with basic signal or continuity testing before final installation.

Recommendations

Use appropriate cable preparation tools and follow safe crimping or tightening procedures to avoid damaging the inner conductor or degrading RF performance. For critical RF links, check return loss or VSWR after installation and choose corrosion-resistant mounting locations to maintain long-term signal quality.
