TC-400-BM-X BNC Male Connector

Reliable Connectivity for Broadcast and Wireless Applications

TC-400-BM-X provides a premium, classic termination method for LMR-400 coaxial cable. Utilizing a solder center pin combined with an outer crimp shield, this BNC Male connector is engineered for superior pull strength, signal integrity, and reliable performance up to 4 GHz better than RG-213 Performance.

• Secure Bayonet Lock: Features the classic BNC bayonet coupling mechanism for fast, positive locking, ensuring a secure connection that is resistant to vibration.
• Solder Center Pin: The inner contact requires soldering, which provides a permanent, low-resistance electrical connection, ideal for demanding applications or stranded center conductors.
• High Frequency Performance: Engineered for excellent VSWR performance (typically <1.35:1) with an impedance of 50 Ohms for use in applications up to 4 GHz better than RG-213 Performance.
• Robust Construction: Features a White Bronze (Albaloy) body finish and Gold-plated center pin for exceptional durability, corrosion resistance, and low signal loss.
• Time-Tested TC Style: This connector is a reliable, industry-proven design, offering maximum mechanical robustness where solderless connections are not preferred.

Technical Specifications (Performance & Build)

Installation Method: Solder Pin Advantage

The TC-400-BM-X uses a two-step termination process that prioritizes connection quality over speed.

1. Solder Pin: The center conductor is soldered directly to the provided pin, ensuring a permanent electrical and mechanical bond with near-zero insertion loss.
2. Crimp Shield: The outer ferrule is crimped over the cable jacket and braid, providing a robust, 360-degree shield termination and superior cable retention force (> 500 N pull force).

Applications & Use Cases

This high-quality BNC Male connector is suitable for 50 Ohm coaxial cable systems where a rugged, quick-disconnect interface is required.

• Test & Measurement Equipment: Oscilloscopes, Signal Generators, and Spectrum Analyzers.
• Radio Communications: Two-way radio, Amateur Radio (Ham), and fixed wireless.
• Security & Surveillance: Older generation CCTV and specialized camera systems.
• General Purpose RF Interconnects
• Military and Aviation RF Systems
