AMC Connector Series
Amphenol RF manufactures a family of Amphenol Micro Coaxial ( AMC ) Connectors for use in applications with 50Ω impedance requirements. AMC connectors are low profile (2.5mm of the board) and offer an extremely small board footprint (3mm x 2mm).

MCX Connector Series
Amphenol RF offers the MCX series of snap-on subminiature connectors that conform to the European CECC 22220. Since the MCX has identical inner contact and insulator dimensions as the SMB, while being 30% smaller, it provides designers with options where weight and physical space are limited. MCX provides broadband capability through 6GHz with a snap-on connector design. A range of connectors are available, including printed circuit board and cable connectors.

MMCX Connector Series ( Micro-Mate ™)
The Amphenol RF MMCX series ( MicroMate ™) is one of Amphenol's smallest RF connector lines and is a micro-miniature connector series with a lock-snap mechanism allowing for 360° rotation, enabling flexibility in PCB layouts. The MMCX connectors conform to the European CECC 22000 specification. The 6GHz, 50Ω interconnect system is available in surface mount, edge card, and cable connectors.

TNC Connector Series
The Amphenol TNC series was designed as a threaded version of the BNC and features screw threads for mating. TNC are miniature , threaded weatherproof units with a constant 50Ω impedance and they operate from 0 to 11GHz. The Amphenol TNC series is available in standard and reverse polarity. Reverse polarity is a keying system accomplished with a reverse interface and ensures that reverse polarity interface connectors do not mate with standard interface connectors. Amphenol accomplishes this by inserting female contacts into plugs and male contacts into jacks.

Type N Connector Series
The Amphenol Type N Connector series was developed to satisfy the need for a durable, weatherproof, medium-size RF connector with consistent performance through 11GHz. The Type N series is available in Standard N ( coaxial cable ) and Corrugated N ( helical and annular cable ). Their primary applications are the termination of medium to miniature size coaxial cable, including RG-8, RG-58, RG-141, and RG-225. RF coaxial connectors are the most important element in the cable system. Corrugated copper coaxial cables have the potential to deliver all the performance the system requires, but they are often limited by the performance of the connectors.

SMA Connector Series
SMA is an acronym for SubMiniature version A and uses a threaded interface. 50Ω SMA connectors are semi-precision, subminiature units that provide excellent electrical performance from DC to 18GHz. These high-performance Amphenol RF connectors are compact in size and have mechanically outstanding durability.
