摘要： A hardline connector for providing high frequency performance includes a body portion configured to be coupled with an interface port. The body portion is configured to house a collet and an insulator, the collet includes a pin portion and a gripping portion that is configured to receive a center conductor of a hardline coaxial cable, and the gripping portion is configured to define a forward facing surface at a forward end of the gripping portion of the collet. The body portion is configured to minimize peaks and valleys of impedance levels within the connector relative to a desired 75 ohm impedance such that the hardline connector is configured to improve return loss performance over a wider frequency bandwidth without degrading electrical, mechanical, and environmental performance of the connector by minimizing peaks and valleys of impedance levels within the connector relative to a desired 75 ohm impedance. The hardline connector is configured to achieve a return loss of −20 dB or better over a frequency range of 5 MHz to 3 GHz.

摘要： A cable connecting and sealing component for use in a connector including: a seal portion having a seal engagement portion; and a connector portion having a seal receiving connector portion configured to receive the seal engagement portion and a seal compression connector portion that is configured to sealingly compress the seal engagement portion when the connector portion and the seal portion are assembled. The seal engagement portion is configured to biasingly resist axial separation of the seal portion and the connector portion when the seal engagement portion is compressed by the seal compression connector portion so as to provide an environmental seal between the seal portion and the connector portion during operation of the assembly.

摘要： A cable connector includes: a support portion that is structurally configured to move relative to a cable gripping portion when a first connector portion moves relative to a second connector portion; an indicator portion that is structurally configured to indicate an amount of radial compression of a cable gripping portion when the second connector portion moves in an axial direction; and the indicator portion is structurally configured to provide a visual stop indicator reference point when the second connector portion moves in the axial direction and when the first connector portion is coupled with the second connector portion such that the cable gripping portion grips the cable with a predetermined amount of radial force based on an outer diameter portion of the cable so as to allow an installer to use the visual stop indicator reference point to prevent under-tightening and/or over-tightening of the connector on the cable.

摘要： A cable connector assembly that may include a connector that may comprise a first body and a second body that may be configured to be coupled to the first body, and an adapter comprising a biasing portion. The biasing portion may be configured to be coupled to the second body. The biasing portion may be configured to have a space that is configured to allow the biasing portion to elastically deform radially inwardly. The biasing portion may be configured to exert an axial biasing force axially against the second body. The biasing portion may be configured to exert an outward radial biasing force against the second body. The biasing portion may be configured to provide the axial and radial biasing forces so as to provide a secure ground connection between the connector and the adapter and such that a push/pull connection between the connector and the adapter that is operable by a non-technician user.

摘要： A cable connector that may include a first coupler portion, a second coupler portion that may be configured to be coupled with the first coupler portion, an outer conductor engager portion that may be supported in at least a portion of the first coupler portion, and a retaining portion that may be configured to be received by the outer conductor engager portion. The first coupler portion may be configured to receive a cable, the retaining portion may comprise an engagement portion, and the retaining portion may be configured to engage the outer conductor engager portion and the retaining portion may be configured to engage the first portion so as to retain the outer conductor engager portion in the first coupler portion to restrain the outer conductor engager portion from separating from the first coupler portion before the second coupler portion is coupled to the first coupler portion and electrically connect the outer conductor engager portion to the first coupler portion so as to provide an electrical path from the cable to the first coupler portion during operation of the connector.

摘要： A security sleeve system for a cable connector, includes: a first portion that may engage a tightening portion of a cable connector; and a second portion that may engage the first portion. The first portion may be configured to engage the tightening portion such that rotation of the first portion in a tightening direction causes the tightening portion to rotate; the first portion and the second portion may be configured to receive a tool that impedes rotation of the second portion relative to the first portion to cause the tightening portion to rotate in a loosening direction; the second portion may be configured to rotate relative to the first portion when the tool is not received in the first portion; and the first portion and the second portion may be configured to provide tool-less tightening of the cable connector to a mating part but are configured to use a tool to loosen the cable connector from the mating part.
