Hi, this is Mark from Show Me Cables and today I'm going to show you how to terminate a BNC
Male Crimp Connector for RG174.
For today's project we are going to need a 3 piece BNC male crimp connector, RG174 cable,
coax strip tool and a crimp tool.
To begin, take your coax strip tool and remove the outer jacket and dielectric. By using
a coax strip tool, you can remove both at the same time.
Simply rotate the tool around the outside of the jacket. Slide the ferrule on top of
the jacket and push the braid over the jacket.
Then, slide the center pin onto the center conductor.
Next, slide the BNC connector housing over the center conductor. Push the braid back
over the connector housing and slide up the ferrule.
Taking your crimp tool, apply adequate pressure to compress the ferrule on top of the jacket.
This pinches the ferrule against the jacket and creates a secure connection.
Give it a tug to make sure it is properly seated, and you have successfully terminated
this BNC male connector.
