   No. There are many coaxial connectors.   
   https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_RF_connector_types   
   My knowledge is minimal and some statements here are speculative.   
   Corrections welcome.   
      
   I've posted a photo of four connectors.   
   https://easthope.ca/CoaxialConnectors.jpg   
   The photo isn't high resolution but suffices to show salient features.   
      
   Left to right in the photo.   
      
   (1) BNC to Lemo adapter with a Lemo patch cable connected. Connects   
   to the Owon HDS2202S oscilloscope BNC connector.   
      
   (2) BNC to RCA with patch cable connected. Connects to the scope.   
      
   (3) BNC on the Hantek HT-25 automotive ignition pickup. Connects to   
   the scope.   
      
   (4) ?? on a patch cable marked ITT WIRE & CABLE DIV. RG-59/u COAXIAL   
   CABLE. The protrusion of the white insulator prevents connection to   
   the scope.   
      
   > There is a similar HT connector that won't fit BNC hardware.   
      
   (4) appears to be an instance. I don't see it in the Wikipedia list   
   and don't have a name for it.   
      
   Now fairly certain I can connect the Owon well enough to see   
   significant automotive ignition problems.   
      
   Thanks, ... P.
