I've messed up a circuit just a little by ordering the wrong kinds of
connectors. I expected male and female terms to refer to either insede
or outside threads, hoewver now I can see that there are four types of
SMA connector and I pictured them all at http://personalpages.manchester.ac.u...am.Chapman/SMA
types.doc
Could somebody please tell me the names of each type so I can order
them correctly this time? Maplin do not stock all the types i need :(

What combination of this is supposed to work?
In the meantime suggest you look at the connectors here:-

Try to avoid using Male and Female. Plug and Receptacle are somewhat
less confusing.

should be a space between "SMA" and "types".

1 and 3 are RP-SMA (reverse polarized SMA).
2 and 4 are ordinary SMA connectors.
You might find it useful to have some adapters and barrels handy:

those sma connectors are a bitch, as are many other connectors. If I were you I wouldn't
count on using the correct names when ordering, there's so much confusion out there.
Having made the same mistake as you I never ever order connectors these days unless the
supplier provides a nice big clear picture of what I'm buying. Some sellers on ebay
provide really good pictures so there's little chance of errors.
In my view, if the nut threaded on the outside and the inside is empty, then the connector is SMA-Female, if the nut threaded on the inside, there is also a pin, then the connector is SMA-Male.
If you want some RF connectors or adapters,pigtails and antenna,please do not hesitate to contact me. www.rfsupplier.com

Hello,dear friend. Once I have bought the WIFI antenna in Rfsupplier. It provides good quality with competitive price.If interested,you could go to have a look. Hope it is helpful to you.
