Panorama C74-FP-5-SMAP 5 m RG174 Cable, FME Male to SMA Male

Many antennas ship with short leads terminated in the compact FME interface so the cable can be pulled through tight penetrations during installation. The Panorama C74-FP-5-SMAP finishes the job: 5 m (16.4 ft) of RG174 coax that mates that FME female lead on one end and presents an SMA male plug - the interface cellular routers expose - on the other. RG174 is the slim, flexible 50-ohm coax of the antenna world: roughly 2.8 mm in diameter, it bends around tight radii and pulls through grommets, door seals, and cable channels that thicker feed line cannot negotiate. The trade-off is higher attenuation per meter, which is why RG174 leads are kept short and used where routability matters more than every last dB. At 5 m, this lead covers window-to-desk and cross-cabinet distances; keep an eye on the link budget, because thin cable pays more loss per meter than feed-line classes. Thread the FME ends together finger-tight, thread the SMA male onto the router's SMA female antenna port, and the path is complete - no tools, no configuration. Factory-molded terminations remove the field-crimping variability that causes intermittent antenna faults, which matters when the lead is dressed behind panels or inside enclosures. Cloud Care Networks carries the C74-FP-5-SMAP alongside the FME-terminated antennas and cellular routers it links, so installers can consolidate antennas, leads, and adapters on one order and keep spares in the service kit.
