MMCX Plug for RG-178 and RG-196 — 50 Ohm, 6 GHz Ceiling
The Amphenol RF 908-43200 is a 50 Ohm MMCX plug with a male pin, built for cable groups RG-178, 178A, 178B, 196, 196A, and M17/93-RG178. It's a snap-on connector rated to 6 GHz — the frequency ceiling is set by the MMCX interface itself, not the cable, so you get the full band as long as the coax is up to it. The gold-plated brass body and centre contact, with a PTFE dielectric, keep the signal path clean through those 500 mating cycles.
What Cable It Fits and How You Terminate It
The 908-43200 is listed for RG-178, 178A, 178B, 196, 196A, and M17/93-RG178 — that covers the common thin-diameter double-shielded coax used in tight-bend RF runs. For a field termination, you'll want a crimp tool that matches the ferrule OD for that cable jacket; the solder joint on the centre pin needs a clean tinning step before you slide the ferrule over the braid.
