Coaxial connectors are essential components used to join coaxial cables to other devices, ensuring that signals are transmitted with minimal loss and interference. These connectors are designed to maintain the coaxial cable's shielding and to conduct the high-frequency signals that the cables carry.

There are various types of coaxial connectors, each suited for specific applications. BNC connectors, with their quick-connect/disconnect bayonet mechanism, are common in professional video and RF applications. F-Type connectors, which screw onto the mating connector for a secure fit, are widely used in cable and satellite television.
