Product description
This pair of right-angle SMA adapters converts between SMA male and SMA female connections while maintaining a 50 ohm impedance for RF applications. Each adapter is built on a brass body that has been gold-plated to improve conductivity and resist wear. The connector set includes one SMA male and one SMA female per adapter, arranged in a 90° body style to change cable routing without forcing sharp bends.
The adapters are intended for use with FPV goggle antennas, backup and vehicle cameras, handheld radios, radio transceivers, 4G/LTE modem antennas, hobbyist radio modules and other RF equipment that uses SMA connections. Threads are machined to mate smoothly for quick connects and disconnects, reducing the risk of cross-threading or intermittent contact.
Package contents: two SMA right-angle male-to-female RF adapters. Typical uses include protecting a device’s antenna jack from strain by redirecting the antenna, adapting antenna orientation for compact setups, and providing convenient access points in tight installations. Impedance is specified at 50 ohms to match standard RF antenna systems.
Pros
- Gold-plated brass for durable conductivity
- 90° design relieves cable stress in tight spaces
- Smooth threads for easy attachment and removal
Cons
- Adds a small amount of length to the connection
- May need firm seating on loose antenna bases
- Not waterproof — avoid exposure to moisture
VerdictThese compact right-angle SMA adapters deliver reliable signal transfer and solid mechanical strength for FPV goggles, routers, radios, and test rigs. The brass construction with gold plating and smooth threads make them easy to attach and remove, while the 90° orientation prevents cable stress in cramped installs. They’re a practical spare or upgrade when you need to reroute an antenna without sa

Perfect for FPV goggle antennas
I used these as vertical adapters on my Fatshark goggles and they didn’t degrade the signal. They feel very sturdy and are easy to install in any setup.

Tighter swivel fit solved my problem
Needed one for a flat-panel antenna — these provide a firmer rotating joint than my older adapters, so the antenna stays put when adjusted.

Worked where another failed
I tried a different 90° connector previously that wouldn’t function. This adapter performed reliably with my equipment.

No signal loss at right angle
Often these reduce weak signals, but these adapters didn’t. The two-pack matched my needs perfectly.
