Amphenol's 031-316 BNC connector is a miniature, lightweight RF connector developed in the late 1940s. It utilizes a bayonet coupling mechanism for quick and easy mating and unmating. Ideal for cable termination in miniature to subminiature coaxial cable applications, it's commonly used in medical equipment, test instrumentation, antennas, base stations, and telecommunications. Amphenol offers both 50Ω and 75Ω versions to meet diverse system impedance requirements, with options for military-grade (MIL-C-39012) and commercial applications. Reverse polarity versions are also available for enhanced keying.
