Linksys to Dlink Antenna adapter question...

Hey All,
I'm replacing some wireless routers that have antenna hooked into them. They are older Dlink wireless routers and use the SMA commector to hook into the dlink. The Linksys's I'm trying to replace them with hook into their antenna with a TNC connector. Now finding an SMA to TNC connector generally isn't hard to do. HOWEVER (here comes he kicker) the outside casing of the connectors is reversed. What is typically the housing for a TNC female at the back of the linksys is housing a male connection. Any TNC female adapters I get don't work because they have the same housing around them. The same goes for the SMA connectors on the other side.

Any help anyone could give me on this (getting new antenna and stringing that up is just about 100% more work than this will be (They are suspended 8 feet above the top of our building.))

Thanks...

 
In case anyone is curious what I was looking for was a "SMA Reverse Jack to TNC Reverse Plug" which at vetcosurplus.com is item number PAN-RFA-8892, and let me tell you, finding that was a pain in the neck.
