The kit is built for RG-59, Belden 1426A, 1505A, 8281, 9100, and 9278 cables, making it a standard choice for CCTV, video distribution, and low-frequency RF signal paths up to 2 GHz. The centre contact can be terminated by crimp or solder — crimp is faster for production harnesses, solder gives a field-rework option. The shield termination is crimp-only, using the included ferrule to clamp the braid. ## 500 Mating Cycles and Bayonet Lock The bayonet lock (quarter-turn) mates quickly and holds positively against cable strain — no threads to cross, no torque spec to hit. The single-port, 1-position design is the standard BNC interface, interchangeable with any 50 Ohm BNC jack or bulkhead receptacle. ## NRND — Sourcing and Replacement Planning The 68175-1005 carries a Not Recommended for New Design (NRND) lifecycle status. For new designs, evaluate the current Amphenol RF BNC plug range for a direct cable-group and performance match.","metaTitle":"Amphenol RF 68175-1005 BNC Plug Kit, 50 Ohm, 2 GHz, NRND","metaDescription":"Amphenol RF 68175-1005 BNC plug kit, 50 Ohm, 2 GHz, 500 mating cycles.
