Molex MMCX RF Connectors

Molex MMCX RF Connectors are lightweight and compact, which makes them ideal for instances where densely populated electronic applications demand size and weight limitations while maintaining excellent RF characteristics. MMCX connectors are also designed to function in applications operating to 6 GHz and offer similar electrical performance to much larger coaxial connector types. These connectors operate over a temperature range from -55°C to +165°C. The connectors feature a Snap-On coupling mechanism that provides mechanical stability without the use of slotting. These connectors find typical applications in wireless/PCS devices, telecommunications, GPS receivers, and consumer electronics.
