Port Type




   Port Type       
   Your choices are...
 
      
 
   BNC
 
     Bayonet Neil-Concelman (BNC) ports accommodate BNC connectors, devices that were designed for military applications, but are used widely in video and RF applications to 2 GHz. BNC connectors have a slotted outer conductor and a plastic dielectric that causes increasing losses at higher frequencies. BNC connectors are usable above 4 GHz as long as the slots radiate signals; however, these devices may not be mechanically stable to 10 GHz. Both 50Omega: Ohms  and 75Omega: Ohms BNC connectors are available. BNC connectors are also known as bayonet navy connectors or baby Neil connectors.
 
   D-Subminiature
 
     D-Subminiature connectors are shaped like the letter "D" and referred to by their number of pins or sockets. Examples include DB-9 and DB-25 connectors. Except for the color of their shell, D-Subminiature connectors vary little between manufacturers. D-Subminiature ports accommodate D-Subminiature connectors. 
 
   SC
 
     SC connectors are older, medium-size devices with a constant 50Omega: Ohms impedance and a frequency range of 0 - 11 GHz. They are larger than BNC connectors, but about the same size as Type N devices. SC connectors consist of a plug assembly with a ferrule and use a push-pull mechanism for mating. To form a multiposition connector, several SC plugs can be joined together. This multifiber capability is used to build duplex (two-position) connectors and in fiber distributed data interface (FDDI) cabling applications.
 
   ST
 
     ST connectors use a quick-release bayonet coupling that requires only a quarter turn to engage or disengage. Built-in keying provides repeatable performance since the connector always mates with a coupling bushing in the same way. ST connectors are used in FDDI cabling applications.
 
   RJ (Modular)
 
     Registered Jack (RJ) ports accommodate RJ connectors, devices used for telephone connections and network connections such as 10Base-T systems. RJ-11, RJ-12, and RJ-45 are common RJ connectors.
 
   SCSI
 
     Small computer systems interface (SCSI) is an intelligent I/O parallel peripheral bus with a standard, device-independent protocol that allows many peripheral devices to be connected to the SCSI port. A single SCSI bus can drive up to eight devices or units: the host adapter or controller, and seven other devices. Each device is assigned a different SCSI ID, ranging from 0 to 7.  SCSI formats include SCSI-1, SCSI-2, Wide SCSI, Fast SCSI, Fast Wide SCSI, Ultra SCSI, SCSI-3, and Ultra2 SCSI or Wide Ultra2 SCSI.

Common SCSI standards available for SCSI cables include SCSI-1, Wide SCSI, Fast SCSI, Wide Fast SCSI, Ultra SCSI, Wide Ultra SCSI, SCSI-2, Ultra2 SCSI, Wide Ultra2 SCSI, SCSI-3, Ultra3 SCSI (Ultra160), Ultra320 SCSI, Ultra640 SCSI, Fibre Channel, and serial SCSI (Firewire®).
 
   USB
 
     Universal serial bus (USB) is a 4-wire, 12-Mbps serial bus for low-to-medium speed peripheral device connections to personal computers (PC), including keyboards, mice, modems, printers, joysticks, audio functions, monitor controls, etc. USB 1.1 is the original standard that supports data transfer rates of up to 12 Mbps. USB 2.0 is the faster and more advanced enhancement of USB 1.1.  USB 2.0 supports data transfer rates of up to 480 Mbps.
 
   Audio Plugs and Jacks
 
     Audio plugs and jacks are designed to transmit audio signals. They are used with stereo systems, microphones, headphones, DVDs, CD players and VCRs. Transmission types include single channel, multi-channel, stereo and mono. RCA and cannon style connectors are used with audio plugs and jacks.
 
   Flat or Ribbon Cable Connectors
 
     Flat or ribbon cable connectors attach to ribbon cables. Examples of ribbon connectors include Centronics, D-Subminiature, and card edge connectors.
 
   Insulation Displacement Contact (IDC)
 
     Insulated displacement contact (IDC) connectors use a direct wire connection that is usually held in place by metal contacts.
