Thus, the design of the central contact and the insulator support is very similar to that of the<span>\u00a0<\/span>SMB connector series.<\/p>\n<p>However, there are some differences between the two types of connectors. In the case of the MCX series,<span>\u00a0<\/span><strong>the external coupling mechanism has been considerably optimised<\/strong>; a great qualitative leap in design that<span>\u00a0<\/span><span>has reduced space by up to 30% compared to the SMB series of connectors<\/span>. This is a major milestone in this field, achieved<span>\u00a0<\/span><em>without compromising reliability, trust and security in the least<\/em>.<\/p>\n<p>The characteristic<span>\u00a0<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Electrical_impedance\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">impedance<\/a><span>\u00a0<\/span>of these connectors is<span>\u00a0<\/span><strong>50 \u03a9 with effective frequencies of use above 6 GHz<\/strong>.
