Apparently it is the Habst Digital BNC Habst 5N Cryo Reinsilber 75ohm 0.5m. See link:

If you look at the picture per the link, the "earth" connector is an RCA plug. Habst can supply this as a BNC connector by request, however, their recommendation is that you have the RCA connector as shown on their website. The RCA connector is supplied with an RCA to BNC adaptor suitable for connection to an unused BNC on the REF10 (or whatever), the idea behind having the RCA plug is that it provides maximum flexibility for where you can connect the earth lead, so if you want to connect it to a spare RCA socket in the future, you can.
In terms of length, 0.5m is just right for the REF10 and MC3+USB if you want to stack them with the front panels aligned.
Thanks, any particular reason why you chose 75 ohm as opposed to 50 ohm?
