I’m going to show you what type of connector works best for wiring MC (BX) cable. Using the proper connector can ensure a more secure wiring for your project. I will also show how to attach the connector to a junction box.

It would help to know the wire gauge, to find other clamps for different gauges. Good video, well-presented.

There is also a combination connector (Halex 20570, Sigma 42002) which looks like an NM connector but has a ring with a hole in it to prevent the bushing from going through and possibly falling out while allowing the wires to pass through like they would on a regular BX/AC connector. They clamp the end of the cable rather than use a set screw so they work on either type of cable as long as you don't overtighten the clamp screws.

What is the Red tool called that you used to sinch down the ring?

I think the connectors sold as AC/MC connectors UPC 031857655013 are mislabeled. They are only for AC Cable. A single screw MC Connector in your video is the best way to go. There is also a two-screw MC connector that looks like an NM connector yet has the additional metal tabs on the inside to keep the conductors safe. (see 1575murray's comment) I do not think MC Cable needs the red bushings if it is installed properly with the proper connectors. Thank you for posting the video.
