If you use BNC just be sure you get a cable with a real 75ohm BNC
connectors. BNCs come in 50 and 75 ohm varieties. Physically they are
interchangeable. Unfortunately a very large number of 75 ohm cables
with BNCs use 50ohm connectors with 75 ohm cables!!! And its not just
companies catering to audiophiles, I see it a lot in the professional
video market as well. Companies gush about how high quality their 75
ohm cable is, and then put a 50 ohm connector on it. I don't get it. 

Anyway, Blue Jeans Cable is one of the few places that actually uses
high quality true 75 ohm BNC connectors on their cables.
