Description

Pasternack’s MMBX cable assemblies are part of our full line of RF components available for same-day shipping. These

MMBX cable assemblies are designed to connect MMBX system components or test connections, delivering signal frequen-

cies as high as 3 GHz. Our family of MMBX cables can also be used to connect from PCB to panel, offering between series

MMBX options with SMA Bulkhead, TNC Bulkhead and N Bulkhead assembly configurations. If none of our standard options

fit your application, you can specify your own custom MMBX cable assembly using Pasternack’s online Cable Creator.

Our MMBX cable assembly datasheet specifications and drawing with dimensions are shown below in this PDF. Pasternack’s

broad catalog of RF, microwave and millimeter wave cable assemblies allow designers to configure and customize their signal

connections however they like. Whether the need is to provide an I/O for a board design, or simply create a custom cable

assembly configuration, Pasternack has the right cable assemblies for the job. Pasternack can also expertly build your custom

cable assemblies for you and ship same day.
