Short BNC-to-BNC cable for rack installs

Two straight 75 ohm BNC plugs on RG179 coax measure 30 cm end to end. The short length keeps cable management tidy inside server racks and broadcast cabinets. Gold-plated brass contacts and nickel-plated brass bodies survive repeated patching. PTFE insulation resists heat and corrosion in dense equipment bays.

Thermals noise and power

Passive coaxial construction draws no power and adds no fan noise to the rack. PTFE dielectric handles elevated temperatures from adjacent gear without degrading. Silver-plated braid shielding keeps attenuation low across the 30 cm run. Brass connectors maintain stable contact resistance through thermal cycles.

What the pair of cables changes

Dual cables let you route primary and return SDI paths or link redundant camera feeds without hunting for a second lead. Each assembly supports HD-SDI, 3G-SDI, MADI, word clock and sync signals up to 1080p resolution. Rated for more than 1000 mating cycles so re-patching during maintenance stays reliable.

Questions about this item

How do I connect the 75 ohm BNC straight plugs to my SDI equipment without damaging the gold-plated contact pins?

Align the centre pin carefully before pushing the brass body onto the jack; the nickel-plated brass shell and gold-plated contact point are rated for over 1000 mating cycles, so gentle insertion preserves the connection.

Will the RG179 coax with PTFE insulation and silver-plated braid need periodic re-termination or cleaning?

The PTFE insulation resists corrosion and high temperatures, while the gold-plated contact points maintain conductivity; no scheduled re-termination is required under normal rack use.

At what cable length does signal attenuation become noticeable when running 1080p HD-SDI through the 30 cm RG179?

At 30 cm the copper conductor and silver-plated shielding braid keep attenuation minimal; the 75 ohm impedance match supports clean 1080p transmission over this short distance.
