Product Description
SO-239 - Double UHF Female Barrel Adapter Connector Coupler
The UHF-7614HN is a heavy-duty UHF Female-to-Female (SO-239) barrel adapter, commonly known as a PL-258, designed to join two coaxial cables terminated with UHF Male PL-259 connectors. Its compact inline configuration provides a convenient way to extend coaxial cable runs, connect radio equipment, or join existing UHF coaxial assemblies without replacing the cable.

Product Description
The UHF-7614HN Double Female SO-239 Barrel Adapter provides a straightforward method for connecting two coaxial cables equipped with PL-259 male connectors. Also known as a PL-258, this straight-through UHF adapter features an SO-239 female connection at each end and standard 5/8"-24 UNEF coupling threads.
The compact 1.10-inch overall length and 16-point ends make the adapter convenient for installation, service, testing, and cable-extension applications where a dependable inline UHF connection is required.
Construction
The connector body is manufactured from brass alloy with a nickel-plated finish, providing a durable exterior and corrosion-resistant surface. The internal gold-plated beryllium copper alloy contacts provide a conductive contact interface and are well suited for repeated mating and general RF service.

Common Applications
- Amateur / Ham Radio
- CB Radio
- Mobile Radio
- Base Station Radio
- Antenna Systems
- Coaxial Cable Extensions
- Coaxial Cable Assemblies
- SWR Meters
- Antenna Tuners
- RF Test Equipment
- Communications Equipment
- Marine Radio Applications
- General RF Interconnection
Simple Coax Extension
The UHF-7614HN is especially useful when two cables both have PL-259 male connectors. Thread one PL-259 onto each SO-239 end of the adapter to create a secure inline connection and extend the overall coaxial cable run.
RF Performance Note
*UHF connectors are traditionally non-constant-impedance connectors, so actual RF performance can vary with frequency, connector geometry, cable type, and mating components. The UHF-7614HN is intended primarily for HF and lower-frequency VHF/UHF applications; specialized controlled-impedance connectors may be preferable for higher-frequency or microwave applications.
