1. You will need a coax with BNC at antenna end and SMA at Micro end.
2. In addition you will need SMA to MCX adaptor pigtail at Micro end.

The MCX socket of Micro is delicate and mechanical pull of heavy antenna cable may damage it in due course.
As the pigtail relieves the mechanical pull of heavy antenna coax, I personally prefer pigtail over solid adapter/connector
