Hi,
We've recently moved into a condo that has a long VGA-BNC cable wired from a homerun location to our living room. The blue (not that it matters) BNC connector is loose so our VGA signal occassionally looses color. Replacing this cable isn't an option so I'd like to simply replace the BNC connector. I assume this involves somehow stripping the cable and clamping on a new BNC connector. The outer diameter of the blue cable/wire is on the order of 3/32". Knowing nothing about hardware (hey, I'm a software guy :-), I don't know whether there is a wire under the insulation that needs to be stripped or a coax type wire that needs a more sophisticated tool to strip it. Also, is there a standard size for the wire end of the BNC connector? Any pointers in the correct direction for solving this problem would be appreciated. Clearly, if this wasn't embedded in our wall, I would just buy a new cable. Thanks, arn |
