BNC Connectors
The purpose of a BNC Connector is for connecting coaxial cables. BNC Connectors are a type of RF Connector named after Paul Neill of Bell Labs and Carl Concelman. There are 50 and 75 ohm versions of the BNC Connector. The BNC connector as originally designed had dielectric material (other than air) in its interface area. Based on the impedance equation for coaxial transmission lines, the 50 Ohm BNC was 50 Ohm in its interface area (no surprise there).
The primary use of BNC Connectors is for digital and analog video connections. BNC Connectors are also used for radio antenna connections and commonly used in the commercial aviation industry.
Similar Connectors to BNC Connectors
Sometimes BNC Connectors are used as an alternative to RCA Connectors. TNC Connectors are also similar to BNC Connectors. The TNC Connector can handle microwave frequencies though. MHV Connectors and SHV connectors are used for higher voltages.
