HosaBNC-59-103 RG 59 BNC-BNC Cable 3 ft.
Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
A 3-foot RG59 coaxial cable with BNC connectors on both ends. For word clock, video sync, or short digital runs between rack gear.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Word clock between an interface and a converter in one rack
- Short SDI or composite video runs between adjacent units
- Any BNC-to-BNC link where 3 feet is enough
Consider the trade-offs
When to look elsewhere
- Audio signal — this is coax, not an audio cable
- Runs longer than a few feet between separate racks
- Gear with 75-ohm RCA digital jacks instead of BNC
What matters in use
The specifications, translated
Catalog numbers tell only part of the story. These are the details most likely to change how this product feels, sounds, or fits into a setup.
Detail 02
BNC twist-lock ends
Push and quarter-turn to lock. It will not shake loose in a moving rack the way RCA does.
Detail 03
3 ft length
Rack-to-rack or unit-to-unit only. Short runs also keep clock timing clean.
Detail 04
Both ends male BNC
Goes device to device directly. No adapter needed if both jacks are BNC.
Final check
Know before you order
- 01Confirm both units have BNC jacks, not RCA or XLR clock connectors
- 02Some clock chains need a 75-ohm terminator at the last device — not included
- 033 feet is short; measure your rack before ordering
Product questions
Before you decide
Straight answers to the questions shoppers most often ask about this product.
01Can I use this for word clock?
Yes. RG59 coax with BNC ends is the standard word clock connection between digital audio gear.
02Will it carry audio?
Not analog audio. It handles digital and video signals over coax, not line or mic level.
03Do I need a terminator?
Depends on your setup. The last device in a clock chain often needs 75-ohm termination. Check your gear's manual.
04Is 3 feet enough?
For gear stacked in the same rack, yes. For anything further apart, get a longer BNC cable.
