RF adapters are often used to enable connections between two connector types that would otherwise not mate. Certain adapter configurations can also be used to protect connectors on expensive equipment, especially where the number of connect/disconnect cycles is high. An RF, microwave, or millimeter-wave adapter is connected to the equipment, while the commonly changed connection is made with the adapter, which can be easily replaced when it wears out after extensive use; such adapters are referred to as connector savers.
