Ideal 89-048 Bnc Compression Coaxial Connector RG6 15 Pack

Product Description

The IDEAL 89-048 is a straight BNC compression coaxial connector designed for use with RG6 coaxial cable. The brass body provides a durable, corrosion-resistant termination point that holds up in both residential and light commercial installations. The compression-style termination method creates a watertight mechanical bond between the connector and the cable jacket, making it a preferred choice over twist-on or crimp-style fittings in applications where signal integrity and long-term reliability matter. This connector is installed by cable technicians, low-voltage installers, and security system professionals working with coaxial video or RF distribution systems.

The IDEAL 89-048 is suited for structured wiring, CCTV, satellite distribution, and cable television installations where RG6 coaxial cable is the standard medium. The straight body orientation allows for direct inline termination to BNC-equipped equipment including cameras, video monitors, patch panels, and RF signal devices. Each package contains 15 connectors, making it practical for jobsite use across multi-drop or multi-camera installations. The compression fitting style is widely specified in commercial AV and security work where pull-out resistance and a clean, professional finish are required.

Compatibility

Designed for use with RG6 coaxial cable. Compatible with BNC-terminated equipment including cameras, monitors, patch panels, and RF distribution hardware. Requires a compression tool rated for RG6 BNC connectors.

Installation Notes

Low-voltage technicians and security installers typically install BNC compression connectors using a dedicated coaxial compression tool matched to the RG6 cable and connector specification. Strip the cable to the manufacturer-recommended dimensions before seating the connector. Verify that the center conductor is fully extended and the dielectric is properly trimmed before applying compression. Always test signal continuity after termination to confirm a proper connection.
