What are MCX Connectors?

MCX Connectors are RF coaxial connectors with a Snap-On coupling mechanism that operate from DC to 6 GHz. These connectors are standardized according to IEC 61169-36 and CECC 22220 standards. They are compatible with SMB connectors, however, have 30% smaller body size in comparison to SMB connectors. MCX connectors are ideal for applications such as mobile and fixed telecommunications, GPS, Automotive, Handheld devices, and Data Telemetry.
