Spelling: TNCConnector
A TNC-Connector [1] is a coaxial cable [2] connector designed for
radio frequencies up to 11 GHz. Although primarily designed for 75 Ohm
cable, 50 Ohm versions of the TNC [3] are also very common.
"TNC" stands for "Threaded Neill-Concelman", and it named after an
engineer called Carl Concelman who designed TNC-Connectors [4] in the
late 1950's as a threaded version of the BNC-Connector [5]. TNCs [6]
are designed to be weather-proof.
Most Wireless LAN [7] gear which has TNC [8]-style connectors
actually use a non-standard form called Reverse-Polarity TNC [9].
