BNC connector
The BNC (Bayonet Neill–Concelman) connector is a
miniature quick connect/disconnect radio frequency connector used
BNC
for coaxial cable. It features two bayonet lugs on the female
connector; mating is fully achieved with a quarter turn of the
coupling nut. BNC connectors are used with miniature-to-
subminiature coaxial cable in radio, television, and other radio-
frequency electronic equipment, test instruments, and video signals.
The BNC was commonly used for early computer networks,
including ARCnet, the IBM PC Network, and the 10BASE2 variant of Male 50 ohm BNC connector
Ethernet. BNC connectors are made to match the characteristic

applied for frequencies below 4 GHz[1] and voltages below 500 Production history
