electrosmart Pack of 5 Easy/Quick Fit CCTV BNC Plug Connector – Nickel Plated with 24K Gold Plated Centre Pin & Solder Free Clamping Screw

These connectors are as easy as it gets, well made, excellent value for money

Great to use portable.

No instructions – so, had it not been for the photo and advice from another reviewer here, I'd probably not have known how to fully open this plug (being an ' amateur'). Once sorted, no problems. Makes a good replacement for a damaged CCTV cable plug (sealed type).

One of the better coax fittings available, solid, easy to fit and sturdy.

Trying to get the copper core into the pin was the issue..... There is a tiny screw in the BNC pin end that didn't seem to tight or loosen, I would recommend using crimping versions rather than this non crimping version.

Bit expensive but when you consider what a pair of crimping pliers will cost and then the crimp on BNC ends these are an excellent choice especially for DIY installs using coax on AHD CCTV systems... they give an excellent connection and the build quality is second to none also very easy to use.. I've often had to use these on certain rg59 coax as the centre striker of the coax is too thick to fit in a usual crimp on end... I have purchased these or what appeared to be these at a cheaper price from "scambay" but unfortunately it turned out that they had used the picture from Amazon but were selling cheap nasty Chinese version with inferior screws and a cheaper metal composite that were pretty useless... subsequently I continue to purchase these. Please leave a helpful vote if my review help you make an informed choice. thank you mark

I am providing a photo of the components of this smart connector as little is explained in the advert or in the packaging. Once you unscrew the top ring AND push out the gold plated pin from the bottom of the BNC-body, the white polymer insulator with the screw for the coax core appears. The screw in combination with the clamp for the braid provide a reliable mechanical connection. Unless you use self-amalgamating tape, I wouldn't use outdoors due to losses introduced by corrosion. Unless you skillfully solder all mechanical contacts. All in all a nicely designed and solid connector. It maintains the concentric design of the coax. Hence little effect should be introduced on desired impedance from this solid connector-thumbs up.

Used these to terminate some rg58 from antennas so that they could be connected to a uniden scanner. Putting them together is straightforward and they give a solid connection.
