WILSON ELECTRONICS Connector FME-Male to SMA-Male

We purchased the Wilson Electronics Dual Band Mirror Mount Trucker antenna to use with our Verizon Wireless Home Phone Connect F256VW, along with the WILSON ELECTRONICS 971119 Fme Male to Sma Male Connector and were able to replace the stock antenna. The coax for the antenna was ran in side the wall and the antenna located in the attic. Between the gain of the antenna and the increased elevation the Verizon Wireless Home Phone Connect F256VW went from questionable to very usable. We do not have a full signal strength indication on the box it's self but the signal is solid in to the unit. I do not believe that Verizon Wireless intend that the Wilson Electronics Dual Band Mirror Mount Trucker antenna to be used with there unit but it made the difference between keeping and returning the Verizon Wireless Home Phone Connect F256VW. This connector mated the end no the coax to the Verizon Wireless Home Phone Connect F256VW.

I thought it might be hype but works great. I first bought one to try if it work in an area of Mexico where I had zero bars, I get 3 to 4 no problem. I wasn't sure it work on the phone system there but no problem. It claims to boost weak signals which is very true for us we are some areas with zero coverage without the system. The problem is each time I go back to Mexico I have to bring more for people I have shown the booster to.

This adapter is exactly what it says it is. I needed it to adapter a stronger gps antenna to my in car nav device and it worked like a charm. Of course, Amazon shipping was quick and precise!

What kind of nerd am I to love a cable adapter? What can I say, it does the job of adapting the FME connector on the cable run to the SMA connector on my communicator. But what a pain it was to research the different connectors used on cell antennas. I have worked in electronics for 50 years and it took me several trips to wikipedia and a call to both Wilson Antennas and my alarm panel manufacturer to be sure I was ordering the correct cable and adapter for my application.

I purchased some 4g antennas and a router to get internet access in a remote area. While setting up the product I accidentally drooped it, breaking the included pigtail. I needed to have this thing up and running in less that 48 hours. Amazon prime with next day delivery to the rescue. I got the item the next morning and it was in operation later that day. This connector has been humming alone since then. I will prolly purchase several to keep as backups in the near future.

I HAD to buy these to make their product work. They (wilson electronics) sells a product that leaves you missing parts to make it work. That seems to be a standard for their stuff. 4 friends bought Wilson stuff, 4 friends were left hunting silly little connectors to make it function. And to sell these $1 items for $5 is a good profit hustle.

Works as advertised

needed these little babies in order to make wilson products behave together better. extension cables and antennae do not have the correct connectors on them for the portable repeater product. but these do the trick.
