This BNC jack is built for RG-179 and RG-187 coaxial cables — the 75 Ohm miniature coax types commonly used in video, broadcast, and instrumentation. ## Obsolete — Sourcing Reality for the 5225398-8 The 5225398-8 is officially listed as Obsolete. TE Connectivity no longer manufactures this BNC jack kit as a standard production item. For a buyer with a BOM line calling out this exact order code, the sourcing path is through independent distribution and surplus inventory. ## What the Kit Includes — No Surprises at the Bench The 7-piece kit breaks down as: 1 BNC jack connector body (with PTFE insulator and gold-plated beryllium copper center contact installed), 1 bushing, 1 center contact (spare or for field replacement), 1 crimp ferrule, 1 gasket, 1 lockwasher, and 1 mounting nut. The nut secures the connector from the front side of the panel — a bulkhead front-side nut mount. The gasket provides a seal against the panel face. ## Cable Prep and Termination Notes This jack is designed for RG-179 and RG-187 cables. Both cable types are 75 Ohm miniature coax with a solid or stranded center conductor and a braided shield. The center contact crimps onto the center conductor; the ferrule crimps over the braid and jacket. Strip lengths and crimp die selection follow the manufacturer's application tooling recommendations for these cable groups. The PTFE dielectric handles the 500 V rating and 4 GHz bandwidth without signal degradation.","metaTitle":"TE Connectivity 5225398-8 BNC Jack, 50 Ohm, 4 GHz, Obsolete","metaDescription":"TE Connectivity 5225398-8 BNC jack, female socket, 50 Ohm, 4 GHz, 500 V.
