Lorawan RP-SMA Port replacement?

[Cyque]

Hi,

I stupidly damaged my router. I bought an LMR400 antenna cable, but it's so stiff that I accidentally broke off the LoraWan port.
Is there an article designation for this RP-SMA port. I'd like to try replacing it.
I'm really frustrated right now :(
Am I the first to have this happen?

It may snap off, but as long as the middle pin is straight and in place, it isn't broken. Have a look at this video on how to get in place. You shouldn't hammer it down too hard, and please proceed with care. 

As our board has this part integrated into it, it's essentially a fail safe - in case you apply too much force, it snaps off instead of detaching from the PCB like it would if this wasn't in place.

This are great news. Yes, the middle pin is still there. 🙂 Thank you. I will try to fix it.
