Product details

The 031-71008-2000: The kit includes four pieces: the connector body, a gold-plated brass centre pin contact, a crimp ferrule, and a PTFE dielectric insulator. That means one order code covers the full termination hardware — no separate sourcing for the contact or ferrule. The nickel-plated brass body and silver housing colour are standard for BNC video connectors.

2 GHz Bandwidth and 75 Ohm Impedance — What That Means for Video Signals

A 75 Ohm BNC plug matches the line impedance of a 75 Ohm video cable, avoiding signal reflection. The 2 GHz maximum frequency covers standard-definition composite video and SD-SDI signals. It is not rated for 3G-SDI or 6G-SDI. Voltage rating of 500 V is well above any signal level on a video coax — the limiting factor for this connector is the impedance match and frequency response, not the voltage standoff.

Crimp Termination and Cable Preparation

This is the standard field-termination method for BNC connectors; no soldering required. The PTFE dielectric withstands the 165°C upper operating temperature, which matters if the cable run passes near hot equipment. The free-hanging (in-line) mounting type means this plug is used at the end of a cable, not panel-mounted. It mates with any standard 75 Ohm BNC jack or bulkhead receptacle with a bayonet lock.

Frequently asked questions

What cable does 031-71008-2000 work with?

It is specified for RG-59 Plenum cable and the Belden equivalents 82108, 82259, 89108, and 89259. The crimp ferrule and centre contact are sized for these cable diameters.

Does 031-71008-2000 come with the contact and ferrule included?

Yes, the kit includes 4 pieces: the connector body, one gold-plated brass centre contact, one crimp ferrule, and one PTFE insulator. No additional parts need to be ordered separately for a standard termination.
