XY-BNC-AL-BNC50/1: BNC Male to BNC Male Coaxial Test Cord, 1 Meter, 50

The XY-BNC-AL-BNC50/1 is a standard, high-quality BNC Male to BNC Male coaxial test cord essential for connecting various pieces of test and measurement equipment. This cord is primarily designed for signal transmission between devices that utilize the BNC interface, such as oscilloscopes, signal generators, spectrum analyzers, and frequency counters.

Constructed with 50 coaxial cable (typically RG-58 or similar), this cord ensures proper impedance matching between instruments, which is critical for accurate signal integrity, especially at higher frequencies. The cable is 1 meter in length, providing a compact and manageable connection for laboratory and benchtop use. Both ends feature robust, twist-lock BNC Male plugs for a reliable, secure connection that resists accidental disconnection during testing. It is a fundamental accessory for any electronics laboratory or workbench setup.

Key Features

• Direct BNC Connection: Features a BNC Male plug on both ends for direct, straightforward connection between BNC-equipped instruments.
• 50 Impedance: Built with 50 coaxial cable to minimize signal reflections and loss, ensuring accurate high-frequency signal transfer.
• Secure Locking Connector: The BNC connector provides a fast, reliable, and secure bayonet-style locking mechanism.
• Standard Length: 1 meter (approx. 39 inches) length is ideal for connecting nearby benchtop instruments.
• Versatile Application: Used for signal connection between a wide array of test and measurement devices, including oscilloscopes and signal generators.

Safety and Rating Notes

This cable is rated for CAT I: 500V and CAT II: 150V/3A.

• CAT I (Measurement Category I): Applicable for measurements on circuits not directly connected to the main supply (e.g., low-voltage electronic circuits).
• CAT II (Measurement Category II): Applicable for measurements on circuits connected directly to the low-voltage installation, such as household appliance testing.

This cord is generally not intended for high-energy or high-voltage applications (CAT III or CAT IV) due to the BNC connector's typical lack of full shrouding and its coaxial design focus on signal fidelity.
