National Instruments MCX-SMA Coaxial Cable

The MCX-SMA Coaxial Cable is a 50-ohm cable from National Instruments. This cable is also known as MCX410 or MCX400. This cable comes equipped with a 1-Pin, Male SMA Back End Connection and a 1-Pin, Male MCX Front End Connection. National Instruments provides this cable in two variations with two different lengths available. The 1-meter version of the NI MCX-SMA Coaxial Cable is available under the part number 188377-01. The 0.3-meter version of this cable can be acquired under the part number 188377-0R3.

A coaxial cable can absorb extra noise and act as an antenna. Thus, the length of the coaxial cable must be selected according to the system’s configuration and requirements. Operating a measurement system with an unnecessarily lengthy cable can result in serious depletion of the signal quality. This cable can be considered an ideal solution for 50-ohm impedance systems. The MCX-SMA Coaxial Cable is compatible with numerous National Instruments RF devices.
