It ships as a complete 4-piece kit: the connector body, a crimp contact, a ferrule, and a sleeve — everything needed for one termination in a single package.
The 50 Ohm impedance is fixed by the BNC interface geometry and the polyethylene dielectric — no tuning needed at the connector. The 0.2 dB insertion loss is typical for a BNC plug at lower frequencies; the 4 GHz max frequency is the upper limit before mode propagation starts, so keep the signal path below that ceiling for clean transmission. Cable compatibility is specific: RG-179 and RG-187 only. These are 75 Ohm cables in their native impedance, but the connector is 50 Ohm — the mismatch matters at higher frequencies. For short runs or lower-frequency video (below a few hundred MHz), the mismatch is often acceptable; for precision RF work, match the cable impedance to the connector. The crimp ferrule and sleeve are sized for the jacket diameter of these two cable types.
Kit Contents and Termination
The 4-piece kit is a deliberate design: the connector body, a separate center contact, a crimp ferrule for the braid, and a sleeve that positions the cable dielectric. This means you strip the cable, crimp the center contact onto the conductor, slide the sleeve over the dielectric, then crimp the ferrule over the braid onto the body. No loose parts to source separately — the kit is self-contained for one termination.
The Bulk package means it ships as a single unit, not on a reel or tray.
