SMC Connector Female Crimp Straight For RG316 Cable

SMC connectors (SubMiniature version C) are coaxial RF connectors that were invented in the 1960s. MIL-STD-348 contains the interface standards for the SMC and many additional connectors. They have a threaded interface that is #10-32 UNF (screw type). Electrical performance of SMC connectors ranges from DC to 10 GHz. The center contact on male (Plug) SMC connectors is a socket, whereas the center contact on female (Jack) SMC connectors is a pin. External threads are used on SMC jack connectors, whereas the matching hex nut is used on SMC plug connectors. They are available in 50-Ohm and 75-Ohm characteristic impedances and may be used to link tiny form factor coaxial cables (e.g. 50-Ohm RG-174, 75-Ohm RG-179) and printed circuit boards with a small footprint.
