E IN G L LO N O TA A C BNC, N, TNC Connectors AEP BNC, N, and TNC series connectors are specifically designed for use with miniature flexible and semi-rigid cable. They are available with goldplated or nickel-plated bodies and hardware. These connectors have solderclamp attachment for semi-rigid cable, or clamp or crimp attachment for flexible cable. Both crimp and clamp types for flexible cable grip the cable braid with a force greater than the breaking strength of the braid. All have captive contacts. The precision N connectors on page 4 have stainless-steel bodies, and captive plug-on center contacts for easy cable assembly.
