BNC M CRIMP for LMR400/RG8/RG11/RG213/RG393 Cable

Description

The BNC male crimp connector is a foundational RF component valued for its quick-connect/disconnect bayonet coupling and robust mechanical interface. This variant is specialized for the 10mm to 11mm cable class, specifically optimized for high-performance low-loss LMR400, standard RG8/RG213, and high-temperature RG393. While BNC interfaces are typically associated with smaller cables, this heavy-duty version allows for the integration of standard BNC equipment with high-power, low-attenuation cabling.

As a male interface (plug), it features a precision center pin and a rugged housing designed for secure engagement with BNC jacks. This connector utilizes a hex-crimp termination system for the outer conductor, providing a high-strength 360-degree mechanical bond and superior strain relief for thick-jacketed coaxial lines. Manufactured with a durable nickel-plated brass body and premium PTFE (Teflon) insulation, it delivers consistent 50-Ohm performance and reliable operation across the RF spectrum, ensuring low signal loss in demanding broadcast and wireless environments.

Key Technical Advantages

• Efficient Crimp Termination: The hex-crimp design allows for rapid, repeatable assembly on thick cables, making it ideal for high-volume production and field-installed wireless infrastructure.

• Large-Gauge Cable Match: Specifically calibrated for the 0.400″ to 0.405″ OD cable family, ensuring a precise mechanical fit and optimized electrical transition for high-power coaxial lines.

• Secure Bayonet Coupling: Features the classic bayonet locking mechanism for tool-less mating that remains mechanically stable under vibration and constant movement.

• High Mechanical Stability: The large-format crimp sleeve provides superior pull-off resistance and robust strain relief, essential for managing the weight and stiffness of LMR400 and RG8 cables.

• Superior Corrosion Resistance: Features a precision-machined nickel-plated body and gold-plated center contact to ensure low contact resistance and long-term environmental protection.

Key Features

• Interface Type: BNC Male (Plug) with standard bayonet coupling.
