About This Assembly
Specs Summary
RG58 Cable
RG-58 is a classic flexible 50-ohm coaxial cable with a 0.195" outer diameter, offering an excellent balance of flexibility and performance at a low cost. Its braided shield provides good EMI rejection and its thin profile makes it easy to route through tight spaces. Common applications include amateur radio, CB radio, networking equipment connections, and general-purpose RF jumpers up to 25 feet.
BNC Connector
BNC (Bayonet Neill–Concelman) is a quick-connect RF connector featuring a bayonet locking mechanism for fast mating and unmating, rated from DC to 4 GHz. Its ease of use makes it standard in test and measurement equipment, video distribution, two-way radio accessories, and laboratory bench setups where cables are frequently connected and disconnected.
Mini UHF Connector
Mini UHF is a compact version of the UHF/PL-259 connector, approximately half the size of the standard UHF connector, designed for handheld radios and mobile antennas where space is limited. It maintains compatibility with UHF-band signal frequencies and is commonly used on handheld transceivers, mobile radio antennas, and compact base station equipment.
Common Applications
This BNC and Mini UHF cable assembly is well suited for amateur radio, CB radio, and general-purpose RF patch cables. The combination of reliable BNC and Mini UHF connectors and custom-cut cable length makes it a practical choice for both field installations and bench setups. Every assembly is hand-terminated, continuity tested, and ships free within the USA.
