    HELP! WiFi PCI/Antenna Connector Problem SMA

    Just bought a oringo PCI gold card with a SMA Male connector, I logically bought a Antenna with SMA Female connector.... however! They both have covering over the connector end and make it impossible to connect. After research I think I needed a SMA reverse connector on the aerial.


    I’ve searched high and low and I can’t seem to find the right adapter (think I need a SMA Reverse Female to SMA Reverse Male), to convert either connector. If any one could help me find the right converter I’d greatly appreciate it!

    Pretty sure that Solwise will make you any pigtail you like though it may be cheaper to buy an antenna with a reverse SMA connector...
