HDF400 extension cable for external antenna.

[bunchofkeys]

I'm soon to receive a 5G compatible external antenna, this is going to be used with my new 5G router.
As both antenna and router are 4x4MIMO, i'm going to need 4 extension cables to run from the antenna to the router.
The antenna is supplied with only four 5M cables, which doesn't cover the total distance of about 12 meters.

From what i've read, and i know very little about it, the HDF400 cable will offer the least amount of loss compared to the anything else.
But where can i order this?

A quick scout on Google and it shows that i can buy 5M or 10M length, but i would need to crimp the SMA connections on myself.

I don't have the tools for this and never done this before, so i guess i'm looking for a cable supplier that is also able to sort out the ends for me.
Any recommendations?

Are you looking to replace the 5m cables or extend them & if so by how much? You can get 15m cables but they aren't cheap:

Doyou know if the 5m cables are male-male or male-female?

Looking to extend, by a further 8 meters.
The 5m cables will have the male-female ends.

I think that this is pretty much spot on, apart from the length. About 7m too long, but will message them to see if they can customise the cable for my requirements.

Out of interest, which router and antenna are you using?

Router is the new EE 5G 2021, which i believe is the Zyxel NR5103
