Description
The MMCX Connector (Micro-Miniature Coaxial) series is a micro-miniature version of the MCX. It has the all features of the MCX series, including 50 Ω impedance with a broadband capability of DC to 6 GHz and secure, fast and easy snap-on/ snap-off coupling, and a wide range of available connectors. However, MMCX connectors have a smaller foot print than the MCX series.
Like the MCX, the MMCX series conforms to the European CECC 22000 specification.
A range of connectors are available, including surface mount, edge card, and cable connectors.
MMCX(micro-miniature coaxial) series are similar to MCX but smaller was introduced in the 1990’s. MMCX series also use snap-on coupling and 50 OHM MMCX connectors provide broadband capability from DC to 6 GHz. Versions of MMCX Connectors are available for flexible, conformable, and semi-rigid cable types. MMCX series are available for mounting to printed circuit boards utilizing through-hole soldering, press-fit and surface mount type (SMD). Solder and crimp type are used to assemble to MMCX connectors to cables. Connectors Applications include Antennas, Base Stations, GPS, Telecom Broadband Communications, Cable Assemblies Components, Instrumentation, Satcom PCMCIA Cards, Radio Boards.
