Electronic – Is this an SMC connector

connectoridentificationRF

Can anyone identify this tiny connector? The tape measure is in inches. The connector has threads on the outside and a pin inside. The diameter is about 1/16th of an inch. I think it might be an SMC connector but I am not an expert in this stuff.

This connector is on an accelerometer. I will need to get a custom cable to connect to the accelerometer; the other end will be a BNC connector. Does anyone know what type of cable I would want to use for this? My lab mainly uses BNC cables, and they're all RG58, which is way too big for this tiny accelerometer.

I'll add this as a new answer.
Mark & Chris are correct - it is NOT a SSMA connector.
This answer is based on an extension of what they discovered The cable designed for use with the accelerometer is shown here

PCB Piezotronics -
Model: 030A10 Miniature, low-noise, blue coaxial cable, 10-ft, 3-56 plug to 10-32 plug

If you want the "EK" connector only it is here (as Chris advised): EK connector -

Coupling Thread 3-56 female
Size - OD 0.12 in / 3.0 mm
Size - Length 0.29 in / 7.4 mm

With the above information an excessively enthused technician could construct a workable plug
