Default BNC connectors 75 Ohm versus 50 Ohm?

I also have a lot of RG-59 cables with 50 ohm BNC connectors. That's
probably more common, since 50 ohm connectors are much more common, and
the connector choice won't make any practical difference in the vast
majority of applications.

Just a minor note, but coaxial cable Arcnet connectors, using 93 ohm
RG-62a/u coax cable, also used 50 ohm BNC connectors. The terminators
were 93 ohm resistors inside 50 ohm BNC connectors:
