About This Device
Part number C240N-5SP from Panorama Antennas is a ready-made 5 m (16.4 ft) CS240 coax assembly with an N-type male termination on one end and an SMA male on the other. Underneath the connectors is CS240, Panorama's ultra-low-loss 6.1 mm coaxial cable with double screening. It holds signal over distances that would starve a 5 mm cable, which is why Panorama fits it to its longer extension assemblies. The N-type male end mates with the N female ports standard on outdoor cellular, 5G, and Wi-Fi antennas, and the large threaded interface tolerates weather and repeated handling. The SMA male end threads onto the SMA female antenna ports found on most cellular routers and gateways, including Cradlepoint, Teltonika, Digi, Peplink, and Sierra Wireless hardware. For best results, treat the feed line as part of the antenna system. Use the shortest practical length, respect the bend radius at each connector, and secure the run so vibration cannot work the couplings loose over time. Panorama Antennas has designed and manufactured antenna systems and RF cable assemblies since 1947, and every CS240 assembly ships with its connectors fitted and tested before it leaves the factory - eliminating the most common failure point in field-built coax.
