The BNC-P-1.5WCR(40): It belongs to the Hirose BNC series of 50 Ohm RF connectors, specified for a maximum frequency of 4 GHz.
This plug is built for cable groups 1.5C-2W and 1.5D-2W — the specific coax diameters and dielectric types that match the crimp ferrule and center contact dimensions. The shield is terminated with a crimp, the center conductor with a solder cup. That hybrid termination (crimp on the braid, solder on the pin) is common on BNC plugs for this cable class: the crimp gives a gas-tight shield connection, the solder joint on the pin is more forgiving of the center conductor's stiffness than a crimp would be.
Field Life and Mating Cycles
Rated for 1000 mating cycles, which is a solid number for a bayonet-lock BNC. The silver-plated center contact handles the wipe during mate without galling, and the nickel body finish resists corrosion in lab or indoor rack environments.
