'''2.4 mm connectors''' are precision [[Connectors#Coaxial_connectors|coaxial microwave connectors]] that look similar to [[SMA connector]]s but use air dielectric and work at higher frequencies than SMA, up to 50 GHz. The applicable standard is IEC 61169-40. Impedance is 50 Ω. | '''2.4 mm connectors''' are precision [[Connectors#Coaxial_connectors|coaxial microwave connectors]] that look similar to [[SMA connector]]s but use air dielectric and work at higher frequencies than SMA, up to 50 GHz.

The 2.4 mm connectors are mechanically compatible with [[1. | The 2.4 mm connectors are mechanically compatible with [[1.85 mm connector]]s, but will not thread onto an SMA, [[3.5 mm connector|3.5 mm]] or [[2.92 mm connector|2.92 mm connector]]. This is on purpose, to avoid mixing these expensive connectors in with less precise connectors such as SMA and causing them irreparable harm in the process. | ||
