BNC Plug Kit for RG-8 / LMR-400 Coax
The 031-5998-RFX: It comes as a three-piece assembly: the connector body, a gold-plated brass crimp contact, and a nickel-plated brass ferrule.
This plug is sized for Belden 9913, 9914, and LMR-400 cable groups. The center contact crimps onto the pin, and the shield termination crimps over the braid through the supplied ferrule.
Lifecycle: NRND — Plan the Cross
The 031-5998-RFX carries a Not Recommended for New Design (NRND) status. That means it is still available through existing stock and last-time-buy channels, but the manufacturer will not support it in new projects. No official replacement part number is listed by Amphenol RF, so any cross must match the BNC interface, 50-ohm impedance, 4 GHz bandwidth, and the same crimp-on cable group.

The nickel body finish resists corrosion in shop-floor or outdoor cabinet environments.
