Craig what performance for a BNC connector:

a. From a quality supplier that you have designed a PCB transition for, or
b. From anyone that you have slapped onto a PCB, or
c. Attached to a $10. cable from eBay, or
d. Attached to a $100. cable

If you are evaluating cables then the first problem is getting a 
reference plane that you trust which is going to involve another BNC 
connector pair.  Once you get past that then I think you can get some 
sensible measurements.
