TekConnect™ Adapters

TCA75 • TCA-BNC • TCA-SMA • TCA-N • TCA-292MM • TCA292D

Datasheet

TekConnect TCA Series Adapters expand the functionality of Tektronix

high-performance oscilloscopes. This family of adapter systems provide

better performance and less signal distortion than traditional connections

used to move a signal from one environment to another, such as BNC to N

or BNC to SMA.
