Do you need an adapter?

This RFI cellular antenna has 16.4 feet of RG58 coax cable terminated with an SMA-male connector.

If your cell signal booster has SMA-female connectors, you do not need to adapt this antenna; it will connect to your booster natively. Boosters with SMA connectors include the CEL-FI GO G32 Mobile, the weBoost Drive Reach (manufactured 2022 or later), the weBoost Drive X and Drive 4G-X, the HiBoost Travel 3.0 and Travel 4G 2.0, and the Uniden UM50 FN.

You will need to add an optional adapter (above) if you intend to use this antenna with any of the following boosters:

Select an FME-female connector if you have a vehicle booster like the SureCall Fusion2Go XR or Fusion2Go 3.0.
Select an SMB-female connector if you have the weBoost Drive Reach vehicle booster (manufactured 2021 or earlier).
Select an N-male connector if you have a 50-ohm building booster like the weBoost Office 100 or Office 200, the SureCall Fusion5X or Fusion5s, or a HiBoost Home or Pro series booster.

Choose the adapter add-on option at the top of this page before clicking Add to Cart.
