F Male to N Male Adapter [RFS-100276]
The F Male to N Male Adapter provides a direct interface between F-type female ports and N-type female jacks, enabling CATV and satellite coaxial infrastructure to connect to professional 50 Ohm RF equipment. This adapter is commonly employed in RF spectrum analysis, signal level measurement, and ingress testing scenarios where CATV or satellite distribution systems must be evaluated using N-type-equipped test instruments. The F male end (IEC 61169-24 plug) connects to F-type female ports on splitters, wall plates, set-top boxes, and cable distribution amplifiers, while the N male end plugs into N-type female jacks on spectrum analyzers, signal generators, and RF test equipment. Users should be aware that F-type connectors are natively designed for 75 Ohm CATV systems while N-type connectors are standard in 50 Ohm RF applications - this impedance crossover should be considered when measurement accuracy is paramount. Built from gold-plated brass, this adapter offers a robust, reliable interface for signal surveying, plant maintenance, and cross-standard RF diagnostics across HF through UHF frequencies.
