What is a M Type RF Connector
Summary
The M type rf connector is used when impedance matching is not desired, making it a more popular and less expensive connector. It is often used in the frequency band below 200MHz, and is widely used in amateur radio.

M Type RF Connector FAQ
QIs impedance matching achieved?
QIs impedance matching achieved?
The M connector is a standard with mismatched impedance. Therefore, it cannot be used for high-frequency products, up to 200MHz.
Even with a conversion connector with other categories, impedance mismatch will occur when converting with the M connector.
QIn what situations is it mainly used?
QIn what situations is it mainly used?
It is used in products with low frequency bands such as amateur radio.
