Description
BNC CONNECTORS
The BNC RF connector series features a bayonet-style coupling mechanism that enables effective connection/disconnection with proper locking. Mating is fully achieved with a quarter-turn of the coupling nut. With a classic, dependable design, BNC RF connectors are used with miniature-to-subminiature coaxial cable in radio, television, and other radio-frequency electronic equipment, test instruments, and video signals. BNC connectors are most commonly made to match the characteristic impedance of cable at 50 ohms or 75 ohms. With a standard and trustworthy design, RF BNC connectors are capable of accommodating a large variety of RG and industry-level coaxial cables in diversified termination styles.
