The N connector handles higher voltages and thus more power than UHF.

BNC is 500V peak: http://www.amphenolrf.com/products/bnc.asp?N=0&sid=5179C380537E17F&
UHF is 500V peak: http://www.amphenolrf.com/products/uhf.asp?N=0&sid=5179C3807BBEE17F&
Type N is 1500V peak: http://www.amphenolrf.com/products/typen.asp?N=0&sid=5179C38028A2E17F&

The UHF connector has substantial loss at 450 MHz, 1dB per connector pair.
