According to the FCC, under certain applications, it is illegal to replace a stock antenna with one that provides higher gain. In order to prevent this from happening, the FCC has issued an edict that calls for a unique connector, thereby prohibiting the attachment of any other type of connector. There are several ways to comply with this regulation. Among them are:

· Reverse Polarity/Reverse Gender
· Reverse Threads
· Non-Standard Threads
· Non-Standard Shells

Reverse Polarity/Reverse Gender Connectors and Adapters

Reverse Polarity/Reverse Gender connectors satisify FCC Regulation 15 by switching dielectrics and pins/contacts between genders. For example, a Reverse Gender Male consists of a male body, however, the dielectric and contact are female. Reverse Polarity connectors and adapters will not mate with standard coaxial connectors. To attempt to do so will damage the connector.
