The GME FME Female Plug Adaptor AD501 keeps the cable run compact between your UHF radio and antenna lead, handy when space behind the dash is tight or the wiring loom is already crowded. The FME female thread pairs with standard FME male connectors, so you can plug it into existing radio gear without changing the whole setup. The metal body handles regular touring on dirt roads and long highway days. This adaptor sits in GME’s radio accessory line and uses a solid metal shell with a central contact pin separated by a firm insulator for clean RF contact. The small body length helps keep bends gentle on the coax so the cable lasts longer on trips from the bush to the beach. For anyone tidying communications cabling in a 4WD or boat, this is a smart buy that just quietly does the job.

Q: What type of connector does this adaptor use?

This adaptor uses a standard FME female connector. That means it mates with any cable or lead that ends in an FME male plug. It is commonly used on UHF and other communication antenna leads. If your existing cable has an FME male end, this adaptor will thread straight on.

Q: Is this adaptor suitable for mobile UHF radio installations in vehicles?

Yes, it is suitable for mobile UHF radio installations. The adaptor is a radio accessory intended for communication setups such as 4WDs and touring vehicles. The threaded metal body handles vibration from regular driving. It is a common choice where you need a compact plug at the radio or join in the cable run.

Q: Does the adaptor come with any additional fittings or cable?

No, the adaptor is supplied on its own. There is no coaxial cable or extra hardware in the pack. You pair it with existing FME-terminated leads or with separately sourced coax and crimps. This keeps the kit simple if you just need to replace a worn or damaged plug.

Q: Can I use this adaptor with marine communications gear?

It can be used with marine communications gear that uses FME connectors. Many marine antenna leads and extension cables use the same FME male termination. As long as the gear shares that connector type, this adaptor will physically mate to it. Always follow the radio or antenna manufacturer’s cabling guidelines when you plan the setup.
