As far as I can tell, none of the above. They are neither mini-UHF,
twist-on, push-on nor crimp. 

If you go to www.farnell.com/uk there is a product listing in the UK
online catalog(ue). Click Advanced search (top right), then search for
order Code 724816, and you will see the listing. 

Unfortunately there is no picture - the best way I can describe it is
like the rear end of an N plug and the front end of a UHF.
