The body is gold-plated brass, the dielectric is PEEK rather than the more common PTFE, giving it a higher continuous-use temperature ceiling and lower dielectric loss at the upper end of the band. ## What the Limited Detent Means for Your Assembly The limited detent feature means the snap-on retention is lighter than a full-detent SMP. This reduces the force needed to engage and disengage the connector — useful when the receptacle is mounted on a floating subassembly or in a multi-port panel where cumulative extraction force adds up. The trade-off is lower axial retention under vibration compared to a full-detent or smooth-bore SMP; if the cable is going to see constant flex or high-G shock, a full-detent variant or a secondary locking mechanism is worth considering. For bench test, rack-mount, or low-vibration environments, the limited detent is the easier-mating option. ## Compatibility with Standard SMP Connectors The SMP interface is mechanically interoperable across manufacturers for the same detent type.","metaTitle":"SMP-MSLD-PCT-10 SMP Receptacle, 50 Ohm, 26.5 GHz, Gold","metaDescription":"SMP-MSLD-PCT-10 SMP receptacle, male pin, 50 Ohm impedance, 26.5 GHz max frequency, limited detent, gold body, PEEK dielectric.
