Title: Can you identify this micro-minature RF connector?
Post by: stevec5000 on May 14, 2019, 05:46:21 am

My Aeroflex IFR/Lignex1 spectrum analyzer has these little gold connectors like the one in the center of the pic. Does anyone know who makes it or what it is called?  It looks like an SMB but is smaller in diameter.  While the SMB is 3.66 mm in diameter this one is just 2.7mm!  It's similar in diameter to the MMCX but longer.  Hirose makes some small ones like their UM series but I couldn't find one just like this.  Any ideas?

Thanks for letting us know, I couldn't find anything like it. Never heard of ssmb - so many connectors!
