Specifications for BNC Connectors BNC style connectors are miniature, light-weight, weatherproof interconnecting devices characterized by their two-stud, quick disconnect bayonet lock coupling arrangement. Their design functions satisfactorily from DC to 11 GHz in static applications, or from DC to 4GHz in applications involving vibration. The connectors typically yield a low VSWR (reflected signal) to 4GHz. Primary applications include radio telecommunications, broadcast equipment, medical equipment, computer, Precision Video, High definition studio broadcast, video switching and test instrumentation where frequent coupling and de-coupling are necessary. Bomars BNCs are available in an extensive variety of configurations and cable sizes and are impedance matched to either 50 ohm or 75 ohm.

The center conductor is inserted into Bomars unique Posi-Con contact, as the connector is twisted onto the cables outer jacket. BNC 2 Piece crimp connectors make use of a fully captivated pin. Just insert the center conductor into the connector body, slide the ferrule over the braid, and apply a single hex-crimp to the ferrule. These connectors are easy to install and reliable and are recommended only for the lower data transmission speeds.
