Coaxial Cords

Transmit audio, video, and data signals over long distances with minimal signal loss.

Push in RCA and S-video cords to connect.

BNC cords attach with a quarter turn.

SMA and F-Type cords screw on.

RG-58/U and RG-59/U cords are good for low frequency transmissions such as radio signals.

RG-174/U cords have a small diameter, so they're easy to coil.

RG-6/U cords are good for medium to high frequency transmissions and are often used in satellite signal transmission.

Continuous-Flex Coaxial Cords

Often used in automated applications such as robotics, these cords withstand continuous motion without degrading data transmission. Use them to transmit audio, video, and data signals over long distances with minimal signal loss. They’re RG-58/U or RG-59/U, so they’re good for low frequency transmissions such as radio signals. All have BNC plugs that attach with a quarter turn.

Panel-Mount Coaxial Adapters

Mount two coaxial cords of the same gender and coaxial connection directly onto a panel cutout.

Adapters with a micro BNC connection are smaller than standard BNC connectors. They’re also known as HD BNC connectors.

Secure optional caps onto the face of adapters for protection when they’re not in use. All are tethered and open in any direction, so you can access adapters from all angles.
