RG174 Right Angle Dual Fakra B-Code Female to Fakra Male/Female Auto Radio Antenna Adapter Cable – High-Performance Signal Extension for Automotive Infotainment Systems This specialized adapter cable is engineered for seamless integration into modern vehicle radio antenna networks, offering a reliable and space-efficient solution for FM/AM signal transmission. Designed with precision engineering and automotive-grade materials, it supports dual-channel connectivity through its unique right-angle configuration, making it ideal for tight installations where standard connectors would be impractical. The RG174 coaxial cable ensures minimal signal loss while maintaining flexibility during routing—perfect for OEM or aftermarket infotainment upgrades. Key Features: - Dual Fakra B-code female connector (beige key) provides two independent signal paths in a single interface - One end features a right-angle design for optimal fit in confined areas such as dashboards or under panels - Compatible with both Fakra male and female interfaces on the opposite side, enabling versatile connections - 50-ohm impedance matched for consistent RF performance across FM and AM frequencies - Full 360° shielding reduces electromagnetic interference (EMI) and radio frequency interference (RFI), ensuring clean signal delivery - Durable construction withstands over 100 mating cycles without degradation in performance - Lightweight RG174 cable allows easy installation even in complex vehicle layouts - Custom lengths available upon request for tailored applications The RG174 coaxial cable used in this adapter offers superior flexibility compared to heavier alternatives like RG58 or RG6, which makes it especially suitable for automotive environments where bending radius and weight matter. Its low-loss characteristics preserve signal integrity over short distances, crucial for maintaining audio clarity in car radios and telematics systems. With a robust mechanical design and color-coded Fakra connectors, users benefit from intuitive plug-and-play functionality that minimizes installation errors. Ideal Applications: - Extending or adapting FM/AM antenna signals in factory-installed or upgraded car audio systems - Supporting dual-antenna setups in advanced infotainment units (e.g., GPS navigation, Bluetooth, satellite radio) - Connecting automotive communication modules including T-Box, telematics control units, and V2X devices - Retrofitting older vehicles with modern digital radio capabilities using compatible adapters - Installation in electric and hybrid vehicles where space constraints are common due to battery packs or motor controllers User Feedback Highlights: Customers appreciate how the right-angle orientation eliminates strain on wiring harnesses and avoids misalignment issues often seen with straight connectors. Many report improved reception stability after installing this adapter in their aftermarket head unit setup. The dual-channel capability has been particularly useful for integrating separate antennas for different services—such as one for FM radio and another for emergency call systems—without requiring multiple cables. Frequently Asked Questions: What does “dual Fakra B-code” mean? It refers to a single female connector housing two separate contact points, each designed for a distinct signal path—commonly used in dual-band or multi-function automotive antenna systems. Is this adapter waterproof? While not inherently sealed, it can be protected using heat shrink tubing or silicone sleeves for outdoor or under-hood use. For fully weatherproof solutions, consider our IP68-rated variants. Can I use this with a
Mini Fakra Connector? Yes—this adapter serves as a bridge between standard Fakra B-code interfaces and Mini Fakra or other proprietary connectors when paired with appropriate transition modules. How do I know if my vehicle uses Fakra B-code? Most European and Asian OEM manufacturers use Fakra B-code connectors for radio antennas; look for a beige-colored key on your existing antenna jack or consult your vehicle’s service manual for connector type specifications. Whether you're upgrading an infotainment system, setting up a dual-antenna network, or integrating new telematics hardware, this adapter delivers dependable performance, ease of installation, and long-term reliability—all critical factors for professional automotive integrators and DIY enthusiasts alike.
