In my experience, quality BNC connectors properly installed are very
reliable.
Cheap (e.g. Chinese) BNC connectors are not reliable, and should be avoided.
I have no experience with BNC connectors on large cables such as RG8,
but I would be concerned about stress.
For example, I highly DO NOT RECOMMEND the 25' or 50' cables with BNC
connectors on the end that are sold by Buddipole.
I use UHF outside and BNC inside, but am planning to see if I can
reliably install type N connectors, and if I can I will probably use
them instead of UHF.
