MCX F Solder for 1.13mm/1.32mm/ 1.37mm Cable Cable

Description

The MCX (Micro Coaxial) Female Solder connector is an ultra-miniature RF interface designed for 50 Ohm systems where space is at an absolute premium. This connector serves as the “jack” or “socket” side of the connection, designed to mate with any standard MCX male plug. This specific variant is precision-machined with a specialized rear termination entry to accommodate the most common micro-coaxial sizes, including 1.13mm, 1.32mm, and 1.37mm outer diameter cables.

The connector features a Gold-Plated Brass body and center contact, ensuring maximum conductivity and superior protection against oxidation. Unlike standard crimp connectors for larger cables, this micro-cable version typically utilizes a direct-solder termination for both the center conductor and the outer braid, or a micro-crimp/solder hybrid. This ensures a low-profile, high-strength mechanical bond that minimizes signal leakage in sensitive high-frequency applications. Its snap-on coupling allows for a secure, repeatable connection that can rotate 360 degrees after installation, significantly reducing torque and stress on the delicate micro-coax during routing.

Key Technical Advantages

• Ultra-Miniature Design: The compact MCX footprint enables high-density placement on congested circuit boards and within slim electronic housings where standard connectors are too large.

• Versatile Micro-Cable Support: Engineered to provide a secure fit for high-performance 1.13mm, 1.32mm, and 1.37mm micro-coaxial cables, commonly used in modern mobile devices.

• Snap-On Convenience: The tool-less mating interface facilitates rapid assembly and maintenance, while the rotating design prevents cable kinking during internal routing.

• Gold-Plated Signal Integrity: Heavy gold plating on all critical contact surfaces ensures a low-resistance signal path and maintains performance through at least 500 mating cycles.

• Optimized for High-Density Wireless: Specifically designed to bridge internal PCB connectors to external antennas in WiFi 6E/7 and 5G sub-6GHz applications.
