Description
The MCX Female Straight Connector is a high-density, miniature RF interface designed for direct, through-hole PCB mounting. As a member of the Micro-Coaxial (MCX) family, this connector is approximately 30% smaller than standard SMB types, making it the perfect choice for compact electronic assemblies where space and weight are at a premium. Its straight 180° orientation ensures a clean signal path, suitable for high-performance RF designs.
This connector features a snap-on interface, allowing for efficient, quick-installation modular designs without requiring threaded locking. Constructed from high-quality gold-plated copper, it offers superior electrical conductivity and exceptional resistance to environmental corrosion. Delivering reliable broadband performance up to 6 GHz with minimal signal reflection, this MCX jack provides a cost-effective, professional-grade solution for modern GPS devices, wireless networking hardware, and industrial telemetry systems.
