What is an MCX Connector and what applications are MCX Connectors used in?

MCX Connectors conform to the European CECC 22220 spec and were introduced in the 1980s. While the MCX uses identical inner contact and insulator dimensions as the SMB, the outer diameter is approximately 30% smaller than the SMB Connector. MCX Connectors are a good option where weight and physical space are limited. MCX connectors come in 50 Ohm or 75 Ohm, have very good electrical performance, and can accommodate a wide range of miniature RG/U flexible coaxial cables. They are commonly found in U.S. digital cellular PCN (Personal Communications Network) Infrastructure, Global Positioning Systems (GPS), Instrumentation, and Wireless LAN Systems.
