enter image description here Not being an electronics professional but face the following problem I hope you can help me. I would like to estimate the losses due to an impedance mismatch of connector used in wall-crossing of a coaxial transmission line.

Unfortunately, I do not have the experimental resources for testing the connector (with network analyzer).

Is it possible with analytical formula or with simulations?

The mismatch loss is almost certainly half of nothing, the connectors length being negligible compared to the ~2M electrical wavelength.

However, if that is an N type, be careful, 50R and 75R N types are NOT compatible and trying will either damage the female or make unreliable contact (depending on which way you try it), the centre pin geometry is different.
