That looks like Belden 1855A cable. That connector is a Neutrik rearTWIST UHD BNC connector, which means it's part number NBNC75BDD6X with the BST-BNC-6 blue boot (it comes with black boots.) The crimp die for this connector is the Neutrik DIE-R-BNCX-PDG which fits the Neutrik HX-R-BNC, the Knipex 97 43 200, or the Rennsteig PEW12 (all the same crimper.)
The Paladin/Greenlee CrimpAll PA8000 with the PA2699 crimp die will also work.
You will also need a coax stripper, I like the Greenlee CST Pro. For this cable, you will need the orange blade cartridge.
A small side cutter is also nice to trim the center conductor and any stray braid wires. My favorite is the Hakko Micro Cutter.
Good tools makes such a difference. i love my Paladin Crimper even though I only ever used the one die in it!!!
