Help Identifying Antenna Connector On Proxim Harmony 8430
Does anyone know for sure what connector this card uses for it's external antenna connection. I think I know but I just need someone to confirm before I spend the dollars on a pigtail... Thanks

The 11W uses a Proxim Harmony 8430 802.11b PC card radio that supports 40 bit WEP encryption only. (The FCCID on the Proxim card shows that it's an XI-300 sourced from Z-Com.) The radio is plugged into a PC card connector mounted inside the chassis enclosure, with the patch type antenna sticking out of a slot in the rear of the box. The antenna module is removable and connected via two miniature MMCX style connectors, so with the proper "pigtail" cables, it's possible to attach other antennas.
Does this sound like it?

Thanks for replying, the card is the same model number and even the same FCC ID but the antenna is most definately not removable. The older Proxim "OpenAir" cards had a removable antenna with mmcx connectors, but this card http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.d...095093623&rd=1 doesn't!! The connector is very similar to an MCX but it's not because I have tried one with no luck. In the picture is the card's connector with an MCX pigtail beside it, it's what I thought it might be until I tried it...
