MCX F RA Solder PCB Mount SMT

Description

The MCX (Micro Coaxial) Female Right-Angle SMT connector is an ultra-miniature RF interface designed for 50 Ohm systems requiring a minimal vertical footprint. Unlike through-hole variants, this Surface Mount Technology (SMT) version is designed to be soldered directly onto the surface of a printed circuit board, facilitating automated high-volume assembly via pick-and-place machines and reflow soldering. The right-angle configuration ensures the mated cable runs parallel to the PCB, which is critical for slim enclosures and stacked board architectures.

The connector features a Gold-Plated Brass body and a high-performance center contact to ensure maximum electrical conductivity and a low-resistance signal path. Its snap-on coupling mechanism provides a secure, vibration-resistant connection with MCX male plugs while allowing for 360-degree rotation to simplify cable management. Optimized for stable performance from DC to 6GHz, this SMT connector is a critical component for modern mobile infrastructure, providing a reliable, low-profile bridge for WiFi, GPS, and cellular signals.

Key Technical Advantages

• Ultra-Low Profile RA Design: The 90-degree orientation minimizes the vertical height of the connector, making it ideal for the thinnest electronic devices and high-density packaging.

• SMT Efficiency: Designed for surface-mount applications, enabling faster production speeds and reducing the need for drilled holes in the PCB.

• Snap-On Convenience: The tool-less mating interface facilitates rapid assembly and maintenance, while the rotating design prevents mechanical stress on the SMT solder pads.

• Gold-Plated Precision: Heavy gold plating on the body and contact surfaces ensures superior signal integrity and a high number of mating cycles without oxidation.

• Optimized RF Performance: Engineered for low VSWR and consistent impedance matching across a wide frequency range, essential for high-speed wireless data transmission.
