Description

A BNC Female LMR-100 Crimp Connector (BNC F LMR 100 CRIMP) is a 50-ohm RF cable connector designed to terminate thin, ultra-flexible LMR-100 (or RG-174 / RG-316 class) coaxial cable. It uses a dual-crimp design to secure the center contact and outer metallic sleeve, providing a durable physical hold and continuous 360-degree shield grounding. Part Designation BreakdownBNC: Quick quarter-turn twist-and-lock bayonet coupling interface. F: Female connector gender (jack/receptacle). LMR 100: Precision-sized for low-loss LMR-100 coaxial cable (~2.79 mm / 0.110 in outer diameter).CRIMP: Crimp-style attachment method using a metal ferrule over the outer braid shield and a crimp or solder pin center contact.

Fast & Repeatable Assembly: Crimp ferrules allow high-volume cable termination in the field using standard hex die crimp tools.High Strain Relief: The metal ferrule grips the outer braid shield and jacket securely to prevent the cable from being pulled out under physical tension.Common ApplicationsShort RF Jumper Assemblies: Connecting internal modules inside small radio housings or IoT devices.WLAN & GPS Antenna Leads: Interfacing external antennas with internal RF boards or pigtails.Test & Measurement: Portable test leads and patch cables where flexibility and low cable weight are required.
