Termination is a clearly defined technical in the context of high frequency cabling, as is the use of the term. If you want to change that definition and use when it suits you, then you are switching arguments or are deliberately obfuscating things.

400MHz gives you around 2.5 nS time domain resolution.

The glitches caused by RCA Plug/Sockets together are one fifth of that. There is no way you can actually see these glitches unless you get much better gear, neither my standard set of 'scopes nor your "the dog ate my homework" Tek with blown powersupply can show the differences between RCA & BNC connectors.

If you actually see any differences using this gear you either changed more than just connectors or the method has a fundamental flaw. You should really check your work.

You can ask Steve to help. He has the instrumentation needed.

At 20 bits, you are on the verge of dynamic range covering fly-farts-at-20-feet to intolerable pain. Really, what more could we need?
