Nope. No mounting to PCB.

Just replaced the RCA with the BNC, and soldered the existing wires to the pins.

One thing though, compare the current hole diameters of the RCA and the hole diameter requirement for the BNC. It's been a long time since I've replaced jacks of any sort, and I do recall having to widen the hole in some cases, be it BNC's or RCA's.

The BNC dimensions can be found on the net, usually from wherever you purchase.

If you do need to widen. Sometimes you can just use a round file, or you might need to use a tapered drill bit. Don't want to make it sound over complicated. Just that if you do need to widen the hole. Once it's done, it's done. No going back.

Cheers!
