50 ohm or 75 ohm?
Wireless microphone and IEM systems use 50 ohm RF connections. Video coax (SDI and similar) is usually 75 ohm and looks almost identical. Use the wrong one on an antenna path and you lose signal. These leads are 50 ohm, for Shure, Sennheiser and other systems with 50 ohm BNC antenna connections.
Length and loss
- 0.5m and 1m: short hops between receivers and antenna distribution inside a rack.
- 5m: to an antenna on a stand or the top of a rack case nearby.
- RG58 is thin and flexible but loses more signal than thicker cable. Shure's guidance is not to use RG58 for antenna runs much over about 3m (10ft). For a remote antenna well away from the rack, use a low-loss cable.
Looking after BNC leads
- Push and twist to lock; don't pull on the cable to release it.
- Coil loosely. Tight kinks change the cable's characteristics.
- Keep spares in the RF kit: a damaged BNC lead can cause dropouts.
