Product Description

Shakespeare’s extensive line of marine-grade coaxial connectors and adapters focus on durability, corrosion resistance, and signal integrity in demanding marine environments. All connectors are made of gold-plated brass, which better withstands the corrosive effects of salt air and avoids traditional connector-borne signal loss common in marine installations.

The PL-259-58-G and PL-259-8X-G models include DooDad® cable strain reliefs and UG adapters to fit RG-58 and RG-8X cables, respectively. These connectors are solderless and crimp-on types, simplifying installation while providing secure and high-quality connections. The PL-259-G is designed for heavier coax cables such as RG8/AW and RG-213.

The RA-259-239-G right-angle adapter allows for tight-space installations by converting a PL-259 connector output to an SO-239 input at a right angle, maintaining gold-plated marine-grade durability.

The revolutionary PL-259-CP-G Centerpin® connector offers a solderless, fuss-free installation that eliminates the need for soldering skills, measurements, or braid handling, catering to RG-58/AU and RG-8X cables and ensuring reliable marine-grade performance.
