RF Connectors > MMCX RF Connectors
Description
The MMCX series is also called MicroMate™. It is one of Amphenol’s smallest RF connector line and was developed in the 1990’s. MMCX is a micro-miniature connector series with a lock-snap mechanism allowing for 360 degrees rotation enabling flexibility in PCB layouts. MMCX connectors conform to the European CECC 22000 specification.
The micromate family of products is a 6 GHz 50 Ω interconnect system. A range of connectors are available including surface mount, edge card, and cable connectors.
