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.

Coaxial Connectors

Transmit audio, video, and data through coaxial cable. Choose a connector that matches the RG number of your coaxial cable.

BNC and RCA connectors are often used for audio and video transmission.

SMA connectors are often used for data transmission.

F-type connectors are for video transmission.

Crimp-on connectors attach with the included ferrule and create a hex-shaped connection.

Compression connectors have one-piece construction that provides the most secure connection.

Caps terminate the end of an unused cable.

Crimpers (not included) are required to attach crimp-on and compression connectors to wire.
