Why the Cable Group Matters — RG-178 and RG-196 Only
This plug is dimensioned specifically for RG-178 and RG-196 cable. The crimp ferrule and centre contact are sized to match the dielectric diameter and braid coverage of those cables. If your harness calls for a different cable, you need a different MMCX plug designed for that cable group.
