RT-AC1900P antenna connectors.

I'm trying to test out an 2.4 GHz WiFi antenna (this antenna https://www.amazon.ca/dp/B004K2I70E/?tag=smallncom-20 and I was wondering what type of SMA connector my router has. Is it the normal SMA or is it RP-SMA?

Strange they don't show the 3rd antenna. I know it is physically the same as the others.

The information is given per radio chip (2.4GHz and 5GHz) not per antenna.

RP-SMA, eh? Hmm... I have tons of connectors that are SMA but I guess those won't work.

RP means reversed SMA, where the pin is on male plug while with RP-SMA pin is on female plug.
for WiFi antennas on routers or USB-sticks usually only RP-SMA is used: https://img.bgxcdn.com/images/oaupl...B/DF/b0ca43c6-8164-4f8a-bd0c-4605a295b84d.jpg
