Ideal for making dipole antennas.

They are great for making dipole antennas or any other application where you need to solder both conductors. Much better for this application than the surface/panel mount type.

Pros
  • Never worry about security issues. Confident in the quality of our connector, we are willing to offer a 1-MONTH replacement warranty and 100% quality guarantee. If unfortunately you have received a defective one please contact our customer service
Cons
  • Long Time

good connection for standard PL259

I bought the wrong format but works great for my marine radio. If you need the PL259 make sure you buy the right form factor, they will all work, it's just a matter of wiring etc.

Pros
  • frequency range: 3 GHz | >1000 times joint life
Cons
  • Poor repairability

Not worth the trouble

I'm not an expert but of what I can say that instead of PTFE (Teflon), they just use a plastic dielectric. I used them to build a 9:1 splitter and the dielectric seemed to melt and deform on the first one I soldered on. And the middle connector spun freely after soldering, causing stress on the solder joint. I thought maybe I just took too much. Time with the soldering iron and let it get too hot. So I pulled it out and put a PL259 connector in the second so the hole lined up and possibly acted

Pros
  • Applicable: Antenna, CB Ham Radio, Telecom, Coax, LMR, SWR Meter, Wireless LAN Equipment, CCTV, Microwave, Digital Communications Systems
Cons
  • Packaging is ugly

It's finally here - UPDATE

This is an updated review. Functions look exactly how I need it. Now I've used a couple of connectors. The quality seems to be good. After reading a few reviews stating that the center insulator was made of the wrong plastic, I made sure the center cup was carefully tinned with solder, used a heat sink to keep the plastic from melting, and everything was good. Overall I'm happy with the quality, but be careful not to melt the plastic insulator with the soldering iron.

Pros
  • A sea of positive emotions
Cons
  • New competitors have emerged

Best quality connectors in this price range

The design and quality of these connectors is excellent. I especially like the center pin connection design. It holds tight and should not come loose with normal use. In this case, it is easy to tighten, since the outside edges of the gripper fingers are visible. It's hard to beat them for the price. Of course you can buy higher quality connectors for 10 times the price. Then you get silver/gold. This would be overkill for UHF connectors in all but the most demanding of situations, and evenโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Easy to read front panel
Cons
  • Blank
