Are you sure THAT is the one you are looking for ? I've used a LOT of
different 'N' connectors in the past 30 years, but I've never seen nor
used one as ugly as that one. The coax braid is supposed to be soldered
to the tab and the center conductor to the pin.
Digikey has *almost* any connector you could want. Figure 15 on this
catalog page:

is something I'd use way before the other one, even at 2x the price.
