Hello Folks,
The recent SMB vs SMX thread brought it up again: Suppose you must be in a much lower cost bracket. I often use RCA, even at 100MHz. They work surprisingly well, especially if you terminate source and target so a wee reflection won't hurt. However, lately they must have stiffened the ground prongs and one client told me that they don't want them anymore. Over there we had to resort to pliers to unplug RCAs, else the fingers would become seriously calloussed.
So, what's out there for under 50 Cents a pop and (unlike BNC) easy to mount onto RG174 and stuff like that? It doesn't have to be pretty or shiny, it's all inside of systems.
