MCX connector has 50ohm and 75ohm impedance, and MCX male connector has the outer contact of six slots radically spaced.
MCX connector offers broadband capability up to 6GHz, and has a full range for different coaxial cables, pcb application, panel mount types.
Mechanical Feature:
MCX male
•Snap-on coupling
•Outer contact has six slots radically spaced
•Outer diameter range is 3.66mm ~ 3.76mm
•Male center contact
•Insulator nestles up throughout against outer contact and an (air) gap between insulator and center contact for 50 ohm MCX male
•Insulator nestles against center contact and is not explicitly visible for 75 ohm MCX male
MCX female
•Snap-on coupling
•Inner diameter range is 3.43mm ~ 3.48mm for mating
•Female center contact
•Insulator surrounds female center contact wholly for 50 ohm MCX female
•Center contact is standing without insulator surrounded wholly. The insulator is not explicitly visible for 75 ohm MCX female
