Protect Unused BNC Connections
Leaving BNC connectors exposed can allow moisture, dust, dirt, and other contaminants to accumulate on the connector interface. The BNC-DSTCP-P provides a simple way to keep unused BNC female connectors covered when they are not in service.
The internal red neoprene washer helps create a more protective interface around the connector opening, while the attached ball chain keeps the cap conveniently tethered to the equipment.
