SKU CH-XCJ0-N6AR4

A 50 ohm RG316 coaxial cable with BNC male to SMA male connectors and gold-plated contacts, 6 ft long

  • TypeHI - Antennas, Wires & Fittings
  • 50 ohm impedance matches antenna and radio systems
  • RG316 cable keeps signal loss low at high frequency
  • Gold-plated contacts resist corrosion for reliable connections
  • Nickel-plated connector bodies add mechanical durability
  • 6 ft length suits bench and vehicle installations

Cable type and connectors

This is a 50 ohm coaxial cable built with RG316 construction and fitted with a BNC male connector on one end and an SMA male connector on the other. It measures 6 ft in length and uses nickel plated connector bodies with gold plated contacts for reliable signal transfer. The assembly is intended for RF connections between equipment that use these two interface types.

Suitable uses and limitations

The cable suits installations linking antennas, wireless LAN devices or Wi-Fi radios that require a BNC to SMA transition. It is not for applications needing a different impedance value or a different connector pairing such as N type or TNC. Buyers who need a longer run or a double shielded variant should look at other options.

Deciding specification

The 50 ohm impedance rating is the single figure that determines whether this cable matches the system characteristic impedance. A mismatch here causes signal reflection and loss regardless of the connector style or the cable length. Confirm the 50 ohm requirement before purchasing.

Questions about this item

How do I connect the BNC male end to my antenna and the SMA male end to my Wi-Fi radio?

Screw the BNC male connector onto the antenna's BNC female port by turning the bayonet lugs a quarter turn until they lock, then thread the SMA male connector onto the radio's SMA female jack clockwise until finger-tight.

Will the gold-plated contacts need cleaning or replacement over time?

Gold-plated contacts resist oxidation and typically do not require cleaning; the cable itself has no user-serviceable parts and is replaced only if the jacket or shielding is damaged.

What limits signal quality first on a 6 ft run at high frequency?

Attenuation in the RG316 dielectric increases with frequency, so insertion loss becomes the limiting factor before the 50 ohm impedance mismatch on this length.
