IdahoMan 0 Posted September 2, 2016 Hi, Any decent and trusted sources for finding 75ohm BNC/F/RCA/etc. adapters and connectors? I don't see spending over $.75-1.00ea for them either. Also, S&H is a problem.. Not interested when the S&H is twice as much as the product. Ebay would work, but there's no telling what I'm getting. Thank you.

jeromephone 6 Posted September 2, 2016 Ideal makes all those connectors I don't have pricing but I would go for quality how much does it cost to chase down trouble. cut off connectors. and retest. I bet more than the connector. Several quality mfgs can supply whatever you need I would pick one and then buy their termination tools as sometimes they vary just enough to cause issues. I have seen ideal and other mfgs at the big box stores as well as places like Graybar and ADI Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Any source for items like theses? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

IdahoMan 0 Posted September 3, 2016 cctv imports, PI MFG. monoprice . many other online cctv sellers Thanks. You've had experience with them? They know the difference between a 50ohm and 75ohm adapter/connector I hope? A lot of these sites aren't listing the impedance!! And the listed pictures are probably just mass-issue and they look like 50ohm. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Did you ever use adapters like the ones above in your line of work? Where they true 75ohm impedance? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jeromephone 6 Posted September 5, 2016 never used the T connectors except in some very old networking stuff using coax.(Token Ring?) I did not test any of the other connectors but never had any problems with them. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
