Overview
The Cisco LTE-ADPT-SM-TF is an antenna adapter with a straight SMA male connector on one end and a straight TNC female connector on the other. Cisco lists it among the commonly used accessories for its industrial routers and industrial wireless access points. It joins SMA and TNC connections in an LTE antenna path without re-terminating the cable.
- SMA male to TNC female antenna adapter
- Straight connectors on both ends (SMA(m)-STR to TNC(f)-STR)
- Joins antenna cables with dissimilar connectors
- Listed as an accessory for Cisco industrial routers and industrial wireless access points
- Cisco part number LTE-ADPT-SM-TF
- Connects an SMA male connection to a TNC female connection without re-terminating cables
- Lets you pair SMA-based LTE antennas or pigtails with TNC-terminated cable runs
- Straight, inline form keeps connections compact at panels and enclosures
The Cisco LTE-ADPT-SM-TF is a coaxial antenna adapter that joins two different connector types: SMA male on one end and TNC female on the other. Both ends are straight (SMA(m)-STR to TNC(f)-STR). Cisco includes it in its list of RF cables, adapters and accessories most often used with Cisco industrial routers and industrial wireless access points.
Connector mismatches are common in cellular deployments. Many antennas and pigtails use SMA, while outdoor-rated cables and industrial equipment often use TNC. This adapter bridges the two directly. You can pair an SMA-terminated LTE interface or cable with a TNC-terminated antenna lead without swapping or re-terminating the cable.
The straight form factor keeps the connection inline and compact. That suits connector panels, cabinets and enclosures where antenna cables enter the equipment. Its Cisco part number also makes it straightforward to specify alongside Cisco antennas, cables and lightning arrestors in a standard bill of materials.
The adapter suits IT managers and field technicians building out LTE connectivity on Cisco industrial platforms. It solves one specific problem, SMA to TNC, with a Cisco-listed part.
Ideal for
- Connecting SMA-terminated LTE antennas or pigtails to TNC-terminated cable runs
- LTE antenna installations on Cisco industrial routers
- Antenna connections on Cisco industrial wireless access points
- Field repairs and swaps where antenna and cable connector types don't match
