Description

A BNC Male RG-59 Compression Connector (BNC M RG 59 COMPRESSION) is a 75-ohm RF video plug designed to terminate onto RG-59 coaxial cable using a 360-degree radial compression tool.Unlike traditional hex crimp connectors that can crush the cable or deform the dielectric, compression connectors use an internal sleeve that compresses evenly around the outer jacket. This forms a weatherproof seal, provides superior strain relief, and maintains stable signal transmission.Part Designation BreakdownBNC: Quick quarter-turn twist-and-lock bayonet coupling interface.M (Male): Plug configuration featuring a center pin and rotating bayonet locking collar.RG 59: Sized specifically for 75 $Omega$ RG-59 coaxial cable (~6.15 mm outer diameter).COMPRESSION: Uses a linear compression tool to slide a rear plastic/metal collar forward, locking the jacket and shield braid $360^circ$ against the connector body.Technical SpecificationsParameterSpecificationConnector GenderMale (Plug)Mounting StyleInline Cable MountCable CompatibilityRG-59 / RG-59 Plenum (75 $Omega$ Coaxial Cable)Impedance75 $Omega$ (Video, CCTV, Broadcast)Termination MethodRadial $360^circ$ Compression (Linear Tool required)Frequency RangeDC to 1.5 GHz / 3 GHz / 6 GHz (HD-SDI ratings)VSWR$le 1.20$ (DC to 3 GHz)Pull-Out Force$> 40text{ lbs}$ (captures jacket and braid permanently)Body MaterialNickel-plated BrassCenter Pin ContactGold-plated Brass / Phosphor BronzeInsulator MaterialPTFE or POM
