Thanks. I'll look into the next time I'm in the office. I found a few online items but if I can buy it locally that's a lot better.

I have a MMCX to female N-Connector cable that's about 3' long). I did just find a solution online that's a 2.4GHz with a 2m cable that is MMCX but I would prefer something longer, and also find something with 5.1-5.8 + 4.9GHz if anyone knows of one that's available.
