MCX Coaxial Connectors
Amphenol MCX Series connectors are ideal for applications and designs where weight and space
savings are critical. This series has a 50 ohm impedance structure which operates in a frequency
range of up to 6 GHz. It's push-on/pull-off mating design facilitates a quick connect/disconnect
capability.
Amphenol MCX connectors are popularly used in the cellular telephone, information systems and
communications market.
MCX connectors are available in 75 ohm version by replacing the last two digits (50) of the part
number into 75.
