Rp-tnc Plug? Wireless Patch Antenna


Rich

Recommended Posts

I ordered the antenna below but it has a RP-TNC connector, does anyone know where I can get a plug or adapter for this plug, I have contacted wirelesspro and they seem a bit clueless on the subject!

The plug I am after looks like the left plug on the very bottom image, as you can see this guy had to make it :(

I am still waiting to hear back from wirelesspro but I'm not hopeful, if they don't have the connection I am shocked that they sell this product that doesn't connect to anything and they state that it has a rp-tnc as one of the plus points

hi Rich,

i guess you tried Maplins so it's DIY time if u got 30 mins to spare

:hmm: Dabs.com or henrys audio might be a 'wild card' as they keep a good range

RS or maybe even maplins would be my best bet!

Tried both, neither have them

That was the link I meant to post about the guy making it :(

cheers, will have a good look, a quick look doesn't reveal one though

CPC in Preston may have something suitable, do a google search for them.

Nope, tried CPC, RS, Maplins

I could chop the plug and use something standard but if the antenna is no good I cant then send it back I suppose.

Very irritating, but thanks for the replies so far, I have the feeling I would have more luck searching the holy grail

I know it sounds daft - do a search for HAM radio shops - some of these connectors are used in microwave links above 1.3ghz etc, might be worth a try, you wont loose anything other than time, DIODE Comms do some specialist connectors, have a mouch around.

i had a look mate but i couldnt see an example of what you needed, if i did i might know what it is?

Hope the owner doesn't mind linking his image but his site is www.nodomainname.co.uk

The plug on the right is called a Reverse polarity TNC plug, the one on the left is what it requires.

cheers, will add it to the search.
