how do you connect a SMA Female PCB Panel Edge Mount Plug with 4 Pins Stand Straight Connector to a Arduino?

2

Could you explain why you would want to attach an antenna connector to an Arduino?

3

i don't good internet at home, so i want to make a Radio that does not require internet

4

Put the antenna on your radio

5

i want to make a Radio that uses a arduino pro mini and be a offline radio using the SMA Female PCB Panel Edge Mount Plug with 4 Pins Stand Straight Connector like this one:

but with modifications

making of the case

6

Do you have all the other parts connected?

A straight piece of wire works fine as a receiving antenna, about 74 cm for the FM band.

7

no i don't have all the other parts connected because i want to know if it will work or not, i don't want a piece of wire as it can break easily and i was thinking of putting this to act as an antenna

8

It won't work without ALL the other parts, antenna or no antenna.

SMA connectors are usually associated with connecting cables operating at relatively high frequency - like HF and microwave frequency. It will work nicely at lower frequencies. But ----- a nice question is --- why do you want to connect such a component to an arduino?

Southpark:
SMA connectors are usually associated with connecting cables operating at relatively high frequency - like RF and microwave frequency.

Just so the OP doesn't get the wrong idea -- "RF", an abbreviation of "Radio Frequency", is a term that refers to ALL frequencies of electromagnetic energy below Infrared -- a frequency, such as 100kHz, is RF, but I wouldn't call that a "relatively high frequency". So, it's misleading to associate "relatively high frequency" with "RF". RF can also refer to relatively low frequencies.

Obviously an XY problem.

A solution is given (connect an antenna) but there is no information whatsoever on the problem, or how this solution is even a remotely possible solution to the perceived problem.
