Ultraminiature Connectors

Ultraminiature
Amphenol RF offers several ultraminiature connector series - AMC, AMC4, AMMC - suitable for a variety of applications requiring compact solutions.

The Ultraminiature connector series, AMC, AMMC, and AMC4, are low profile PCB products with an extremely small board footprint. These series are used in applications with 50 ohm impedance requirements, and have performance from DC to 6 GHz. The coupling style of ultra-miniature connectors is snap-on for secure and easy mating.
