Editing N connector (section)

==Variations==
===SnapN===
'''SnapN''' was originally designed by [[Rosenberger Hochfrequenztechnik]] in 2006 and is a quick locking replacement for the threaded interface of the widely applied Type N connector. Though part of the Quick Lock Formula Alliance (QLF), engineers at Rosenberger independently designed the SnapN in order to correct the performance problems of QLF's version of the quick lock N connector, QN. This design achieves better electronic performance because, unlike the QN, this new version maintains the basic structural parameters of the original Type N in which the inner dimensions of the outer conductor are 7.00&nbsp;mm, and the inner conductor's outer dimensions are 3.04&nbsp;mm. A male N-connector can plug into a female SnapN.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.rosenberger.com/products/connectors-adaptors/rf-connectors/|title=RF Coaxial Connectors|website=www.rosenberger.com}}</ref>

===Left-hand thread===
The left-hand thread, or reverse thread, uses the same {{frac|5|8}}-24 UNEF thread size but threaded in the opposite direction. These are used for some wireless LAN systems.<ref name="WiFiCatalog">{{Cite web|url=http://www.rfcoaxconnectors.com/product-categories-connectors-wifi.html|title=WiFi and Broadband RF Coax Connectors Product|website=www.rfcoaxconnectors.com|access-date=2018-05-30}}</ref>

===Reverse-polarity N===
The reverse-polarity connectors use the same outer shell, but change the gender of the inner pin. These are used for some wireless LAN systems.<ref name="WiFiCatalog"/>

===HN===
The '''HN''' connector is slightly larger (¾"-20 thread) and is designed for high-voltage applications.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.amphenolrf.com/connectors/hn-type-connectors.html|title=HN-Type Connectors - Connectors|website=www.amphenolrf.com}}</ref>
