Back Mounted
(rear mounting) |
|
When a connector is mounted from the inside of a panel or
box with its mounting flange inside the equipment. |
|
| Bandwidth |
|
The range of frequencies for which performance falls within
specified limits. |
|
| Bayonet Coupling |
|
A quick coupling device for plug and receptacle connectors
, accomplished by rotation of a cam operating device designed
to bring the connector halves together. |
|
| Bending Radius: |
|
Minimum static: The minimum permissible radius for fixed installation
of the cable. This radius is mainly used in climatic tests.
Minimum dynamic: The minimum permissible radius for flexible
applications of the cable. |
|
BNC
(Bayonet Navy Connector) |
|
Coaxial connector with bayonet coupling mechanism. Available
in 50 Ohm and 75 Ohm versions. Frequency range DC?4 ㎓(50 Ohm)
and 1㎓(750 Ohm), respectively. |
|
| BNO |
|
Connector with bayonet coupling mechanism suitable for shielded
twinaxial cables. |
|
| BNT |
|
Connector with bayonet coupling mechanism suitable for triaxial
cables. |
|
| Body |
|
Main, or largest, portion of a connector to which other portions
are attached. |
|
| Braid |
|
Woven wire used as shielding for insulated wires and cables.
Also, a woven fibrous protective outer covering over a conductor
or cable. |
|
| Breakdown Voltage |
|
The voltage at which the insulation between two conductors
will fail and allow electricity to conduct or ’arc’. |
|
| Bulkhead |
|
A term used to define a mounting style of connectors. Bulkhead
connectors are designed to be inserted into a panel cutout from
the rear (component side) or front side of the panel. |
