MCX

MCX (Miniature Coaxial) connectors are miniature coaxial connectors designed for high-frequency applications in the microwave range, typically from 500 MHz to 6 GHz. They offer a compact, lightweight, and high-performance solution for connecting microwave components, such as antennas, amplifiers, and test equipment.

MCX miniature snap-on connectors offer you an excellent blend of size, weight, durability and performance for applications such as GPS, wireless communication and Test & Measurement. MCX connectors show an essential space reduction of 30% when compared with the SMB series. MCX connectors are sure to fit most applications where space, weight, size, performance and ease of assembly are required.

Applications for MCX Connectors:

Microwave Communication Systems: Connecting antennas, amplifiers, and other components in microwave communication systems.
Test and Measurement Equipment: Used in various test and measurement equipment for high-frequency applications, such as oscilloscopes and spectrum analyzers.
Aerospace and Defense: Found in various aerospace and defense applications, including radar systems, communication equipment, and satellite systems.
Medical Devices: Used in medical devices, such as MRI machines and patient monitoring systems.
