Each end takes a standard PL-259 male plug, so it's the quick fix when a VHF antenna cable comes up short or needs an extension at the helm.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv class=\"nvn-description\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNeed to join two runs of coax? This Sea-Dog double female UHF connector is the little brass barrel that does it. Both ends are female UHF, so each side accepts a standard PL-259 male plug. Thread one cable into each end and you've got a solid electrical joint between the two.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt's a common fix on boats. Maybe your VHF antenna cable came up short during a re-rig, or you need to splice in an extension to reach the radio at the helm. Rather than re-terminate a whole new cable, you couple the existing ends together and move on. It's also handy on the bench for testing or swapping antennas without cutting anything.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe body is nickel-plated brass, which holds up to salt air a lot better than bare brass. At 9\/16 inch across and 1-1\/8 inch long, it's compact enough to tuck behind the dash or inside a console. One thing to keep in mind: it isn't a sealed connector on its own. If the joint lives somewhere exposed to spray, wrap it with self-fusing or quality electrical tape to keep moisture out.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"nvn-features\"\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eDouble female UHF design accepts a PL-259 male plug on each end, joining two coax runs into one\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eNickel-plated brass body holds up to salt air and resists corrosion\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCompact 9\/16 inch diameter by 1-1\/8 inch width fits tight spaces behind the dash or console\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSold as a single connector for coax repairs, extensions, and antenna swaps\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv class=\"nvn-trust\"\u003e\n  \u003ch2\u003eWhy Buy from NVN Marine\u003c\/h2\u003e\n  \u003cul\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eAuthorized Sea-Dog reseller, full manufacturer warranty\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eNMEA member and ABYC certified, advice from real boat techs\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eSame-day shipping before 3 PM ET on in-stock items\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eNY headquarters and Fort Lauderdale flagship retail store\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"nvn-faq\"\u003e\n  \u003cdetails\u003e\n    \u003csummary\u003eWhat does a double female UHF connector do?\u003c\/summary\u003e\n    \u003cp\u003eIt couples two coax cables together.
