MDHC Series

DC TO 40 GHz

Spring loaded High Frequency Micro-D Coax Connectors (MDHC) offer low VSWR up to 40 GHz (typ). These connectors have a constant 50 ohm airline impedance interface and are 30% smaller than our SCX coaxial connectors.

Features & Benefits

  • MDHC VSWR of 1.5:1 (typ) up to 40GHz (max mated pair)
  • Maximum overall diameter of 0.125" fitted into low-profile Micro-D housing
  • Constant 50 Ohm airline impedance

Overview

Each coax contact has a maximum overall diameter of Ø.133" fitted into a low-profile metalized or plastic housing. MDHC coaxial contacts are a drop in alternative to Smiths Interconnect's MDCX RF contacts with increased frequency range from 10 GHz to 40 GHz. MDCX and MDHC coaxial contacts are compact in size allowing multiple high density connections in a Micro-D style shell for applications where space and weight savings are important. No cumbersome spring mounts are required. These connectors are also available with locking post mechanisms or blindmate hardware attachment.
