Amphenol RF MiniBNC Connector

  Amphenol RF introduces the new generation of quality BNC connectors for the telecommunication and broadband applications for higher connector densities while preserving the positive characteristics of the Amphenol full-size BNC's for 75Ω systems. This allows 40% more interconnects in the same area.

DS3 and DS4 lines in Telco Central Offices are 75Ω and the Mini-BNC is as well. This characteristic is tightly designed and manufactured to stay at this impedance over the frequencies of interest and beyond. This allows RF “head room” and presents a matched impedance condition to the electromagnetic field that is so important to return loss performance. Because the mated condition is so important to flawless signal processing over long periods of time, the bayonet coupling can be quickly inspected to determine if the plug is fully engaged to the jack. This is unique to the BNC and Mini-BNC products since threaded parts do not have a positive stop representing full engagement.
