TNC M CRIMP for RG58/RG142/LMR195/LMR200 Cable

Description

The TNC (Threaded Neill-Concelman) series is a high-reliability version of the BNC interface, replacing the bayonet mount with a threaded coupling to ensure stability in high-vibration environments. This male (plug) variant is specialized for the 5mm (0.195″) cable class, providing an optimized termination for flexible RG58, heat-resistant RG142, and low-loss LMR195/LMR200 cables. It is widely utilized in aerospace, military, and industrial sectors where signal continuity is critical despite physical movement or shock.

This connector utilizes a professional crimp termination system. The outer ferrule provides a 360-degree mechanical bond with the cable’s shielding, while the precision-machined center pin is typically crimped or soldered to the internal conductor. Manufactured with a heavy-duty nickel-plated brass body and premium PTFE (Teflon) insulation, it delivers consistent performance up to 11 GHz. The threaded interface not only prevents accidental disconnection but also provides superior EMI shielding compared to standard bayonet-style connectors.

Key Technical Advantages

• Vibration-Proof Threaded Coupling: Features a secure threaded mechanism that prevents signal intermittent issues caused by physical vibration or high-G environments, common in aviation and automotive use.

• 5mm Cable Precision Calibration: Specifically matched to the dimensions of the RG58/LMR200 family, ensuring a seamless mechanical transition and high-strength pull-off resistance.

• High-Frequency Stability: Engineered to maintain low VSWR and stable impedance up to 11 GHz, making it suitable for modern wireless and GPS applications.

• Rugged 360° Crimp Termination: The heavy-walled ferrule provides a permanent, airtight grip on the cable jacket, protecting the internal dielectric from environmental moisture.

• Superior Environmental Durability: The nickel-plated brass construction and PTFE dielectric offer excellent resistance to thermal cycling, oxidation, and chemical exposure.
