Adaptor, MCX Jack → SMA Plug, 50 Ω, DC-18 GHz – AD-A3D8

Product Description

Adaptor, SMA Plug (Male Pin) to MCX Jack (Female Pin), 50 Ω, up to 6 GHz – AD-A3D8

Part Number: AD-A3D8

The AD-A3D8 is a compact between-series adaptor that converts an SMA plug to an MCX jack in 50 Ω systems. It is specified for operation up to 6 GHz with a typical VSWR ≤ 1.2, giving a clean, low-reflection transition between SMA-terminated gear and MCX-terminated modules, radios or test fixtures. Materials and plating follow the OEM spec for stable RF performance.

• Interfaces: SMA plug (male pin) → MCX jack (female pin)
• Impedance: 50 Ω
• Frequency: up to 6 GHz (typ. VSWR ≤ 1.2)
• Construction (per datasheet): brass/BeCu bodies & contacts with Ni-P underplate and Au flash; PTFE insulator
• Form factor: straight, micro size; weight ≈ 5.4 g

Typical uses

• Link SMA-output test equipment to MCX-input boards or modules
• Field adapters for handheld radios / GNSS / telemetry with MCX ports
• Quick bench conversion without making a custom pigtail

Notes: This is a standard-polarity SMA and MCX adaptor (not RP-SMA). For the inverse gender (MCX plug ↔ SMA jack), see AD-A8D3.
