AV BNC Connectors

Summary: ProAV BNC Connectors

ProAV Small Parts and Accessories from Windy City Wire
Windy City Wire supplies a focused line of Pro AV connectors, plugs, jacks, tools, and cabling accessories designed for commercial and industrial environments. As a B2B low-voltage wire manufacturer based in Bolingbrook, IL, we bring the same attention to fit, form, and function in our ProAV accessories that customers expect from our cable products. Our goal is to help AV integrators and contractors streamline procurement and installation with reliable products and solutions that work together in the field.

Why these products matter on Pro AV jobs
A successful commercial AV installation depends on consistent terminations, proper impedance matching, and durable connections. Our Pro AV accessories focus on these fundamentals so your teams can standardize builds, reduce rework, and keep projects on schedule—whether you are deploying RG59 coax for cameras and distribution, building out lecture halls, or supporting mission-critical rooms in corporate and industrial facilities.

Solutions: ProAV BNC Connectors

AV BNC Connectors for Professional Low-Voltage Systems

Windy City Wire supplies AV BNC connectors designed for professional low-voltage installations where reliability, repeatable terminations, and clean signal paths matter. These small parts are a critical link between coaxial cable and your video, RF, and test equipment, supporting consistent performance across ProAV, broadcast, security, and industrial environments.


Connector options and compatibility

  • Impedance: 75 Ohms for video and SDI transport, 50 Ohms for RF, test, and measurement applications.
  • Form factor: BNC crimp jacks, 3-piece design for dependable terminations and field serviceability.
  • Tooling: For use with crimping tool CT-58_59_6 for consistent results; optional tool support with HOL-CT-FBR.
  • Cable compatibility: Built to fit common RG59 families and select Windy City Wire coax. Compatible examples include:
    • 659111
    • 659111DB (direct burial)
    • 659211
    • 9659213-110
    • RG59DB-BLK (direct burial)
    • RG59HDP-WHT (high-density plenum)
  • Outdoor use: Compatible with direct burial cables for campus, parking, and perimeter runs.

Where AV BNC connectors fit in ProAV systems

  • Broadcast and production video: 75 Ohm AV BNC connectors support SDI video distribution between cameras, routers, patch bays, replay, and monitors. Reliable crimps help maintain signal integrity across production racks and edit suites.
  • Corporate AV and collaboration: Use BNC terminations for legacy video interfaces, confidence monitoring, encoder/decoder breakouts, and facility patching during system upgrades or hybrid environments.
  • Education and lecture capture: Connect cameras, recorders, and switching gear across lecture halls, auditoriums, and media labs where coax-based video signal paths are still in service.
  • House of worship: Support camera feeds, confidence monitors, and distribution amplifiers with consistent 75 Ohm terminations, ensuring dependable services and event capture.
  • Live events, arenas, and stadiums: BNC crimp jacks streamline camera-to-truck, replay, and scoreboard feeds. Rugged, repeatable terminations help with fast turnaround and mobile rigs.
  • Security and surveillance (CCTV/HD-over-Coax): Terminate RG59 runs for analog and HD-over-Coax cameras, DVRs, and matrix systems. Direct burial compatibility supports outdoor cameras, parking lots, and perimeter security.
  • Healthcare and labs: Monitor routing, modality outputs, and diagnostic viewing where coaxial video remains part of the signal chain. Choose 75 Ohm for video paths and 50 Ohm for RF/test connections.
  • Government, transportation, and public safety: Use AV BNC connectors in command centers, traffic monitoring, and incident response vehicles for reliable video backhaul and patching.
  • Industrial and utilities: Connect process cameras, inspection systems, and control room displays. For campus-style sites, direct burial runs simplify pathway planning.
  • Test and measurement: 50 Ohm BNC connectors interface oscilloscopes, generators, analyzers, and RF test setups where precise impedance matching is required.

Integration benefits for installers and system contractors

  • Consistent terminations: 3-piece BNC crimp jacks used with CT-58_59_6 support uniform crimps across large projects.
  • Impedance alignment: 75 Ohm options for video and 50 Ohm for RF/testing help preserve signal quality and reduce reflections.
  • Jobsite flexibility: Compatible with RG59 direct burial and plenum variants to accommodate interior risers, conduit, or underground pathways.
  • Serviceability: Crimp-style BNCs allow straightforward re-termination during maintenance or equipment refreshes.

Selecting the right AV BNC connector

  1. Match impedance: Choose 75 Ohm for video/SDI and 50 Ohm for RF or instrumentation.
  2. Confirm cable family: Verify fit for your RG59 type and dielectric/outer diameter (e.g., RG59HDP-WHT or RG59DB-BLK).
  3. Account for environment: For outdoor or underground runs, pair connectors with direct burial cable (e.g., 659111DB).
  4. Plan for tooling: Use CT-58_59_6 for repeatable crimps; keep replacement dies and a HOL-CT-FBR holster on hand.
  5. Standardize SKUs: Align on a small set of approved connectors and cable numbers (such as 659111, 659211, 9659213-110) to simplify procurement and support.

Application examples by system type

  • Video distribution: Patch field to router I/O using 75 Ohm AV BNC connectors for reliable SDI point-to-point links.
  • CCTV upgrades: Replace legacy terminations with 3-piece crimp BNCs on RG59 to stabilize HD-over-Coax migration.
  • Outdoor camera runs: Terminate direct burial coax for parking structures and perimeter cameras where conduit is limited.
  • Temporary event systems: Use crimp jacks for fast deployment and teardown with consistent performance across mobile flypacks.
  • Engineering benches: 50 Ohm BNCs for test gear interconnects, clock distribution, and RF lab setups.

Installation tips

  • Verify strip dimensions for your connector and RG59 variant prior to crimping.
  • Check center pin engagement and braid coverage before final crimp for optimal return loss.
  • Label both ends for future service; color code by signal type or zone to simplify troubleshooting.
  • Test continuity and, when possible, measure signal quality after termination, especially on long runs.

Project efficiency and logistics

  • Pre-build and kitting: For rack builds or large rollouts, pre-terminating segments and standardizing on a 3-piece BNC crimp jack reduces rework.
  • SmartWire and RackPacks: Using labeled, organized cable pulls and jobsite-ready packaging can speed installation, reduce scrap, and keep AV BNC connectors and RG59 inventory accessible at the point of work.
  • Lifecycle maintenance: Stock matched 75 Ohm and 50 Ohm BNCs plus spare CT-58_59_6 tool parts to support ongoing service calls.

Frequently Asked Questions: ProAV BNC Connectors

  • Which cables are these AV BNC connectors compatible with?

    These BNC crimp connectors are designed for RG59-class coax used in ProAV/CCTV. Verified compatible Windy City Wire cable numbers include 659111, 659111DB, 659211, and 9659213-110, as well as RG59DB-BLK and RG59HDP-WHT. They also support direct-burial rated RG59 where specified. Choose the correct impedance: 75 Ohms for video (SDI, HD-CCTV) and 50 Ohms for RF/control applications.

  • What tools do I need and how do I terminate a 3-piece BNC crimp jack?

    Use a compatible crimp tool such as the CT-58_59_6. General steps for a 3-piece BNC crimp jack: 1) strip the RG59 to the specified dimensions; 2) slide the ferrule onto the cable; 3) attach/crimp the center contact (if separate) to the conductor; 4) insert dielectric and braid into the connector body; 5) crimp the ferrule over the braid with the correct die; 6) perform a pull test and continuity check. Proper termination ensures a low-loss, reliable connection for ProAV signals.

  • Can these BNC connectors be used outdoors or underground?

    Yes. These connectors are compatible with direct-burial RG59 cables when the cable itself is rated for that environment. For longevity: weather-seal the mated BNC with adhesive-lined heat shrink or a weatherproof boot, avoid underground mid-span splices, and place terminations in protected handholes or enclosures to prevent moisture ingress.
