'''MCX''' ('''micro coaxial connector''') are [[coaxial]] [[RF connector]]s developed in the 1980s. They have the same inner contact and [[Electrical insulation|insulator]] dimensions as the [[SMB connector]] but are 30% smaller.  MCX is standardized in European CECC 22220.<ref>{{cite web |url=https://www.pasternack.com/images/pdf/7%20Connector%20Identifier.pdf |title=Archived copy |accessdate=2013-04-26 |url-status=dead |archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20130208074250/https://www.pasternack.com/images/pdf/7%20Connector%20Identifier.pdf |archivedate=2013-02-08 }}</ref> The connectors are rated for 500 mating cycles.<ref name=":0" />
