Abstract:
A connector for a coaxial cable. The connector, in one embodiment, includes a post, a coupler and a continuity member configured to produce a radially-directed biasing force. The continuity member provides an electrical connection between the post and the coupler
Abstract:
A coaxial cable connector comprising a connector body; a post engageable with the connector body, wherein the post includes a flange; a nut, axially rotatable with respect to the post and the connector body, the nut having a first end and an opposing second end, wherein the nut includes an internal lip, and wherein a second end portion of the nut corresponds to the portion of the nut extending from the second end of the nut to the side of the lip of the nut facing the first end of the nut at a point nearest the second end of the nut, and a first end portion of the nut corresponds to the portion of the nut extending from the first end of the nut to the same point nearest the second end of the nut of the same side of the lip facing the first end of the nut; and a continuity member disposed within the second end portion of the nut and contacting the post and the nut, so that the continuity member extends electrical grounding continuity through the post and the nut is provided.
Abstract:
A ground portion for maintaining a ground path in a coaxial cable connector includes a coupler ground contact portion configured to be biasingly maintained in contact with a rearward facing coupler surface of a coupler of a connector when the connector is assembled and during operation of connector and a post ground contact portion configured to be located rearward from the rearward facing coupler surface of the coupler of the connector so as to extend in a space formed between a forward facing body surface of a body of the connector and a rearward facing post surface of a post of the connector when the connector is assembled and when the coupler engages the interface port so as to maintain physical and electrical grounding contact with the rearward facing post surface during operation of the connector.
Abstract:
A coaxial cable connector includes a coupler portion configured to engage an interface port and having a rearward facing coupler surface, a body portion having a forward facing body surface, and a post portion having a rearward facing post surface. The post portion is configured to engage the body portion to form a space between the rearward facing post surface and the forward facing body surface when the connector is assembled. A grounding portion has a post contact portion configured to be located rearward from the rearward facing coupler surface so as to extend in the space when the connector is assembled and when the coupler portion engages the interface port so as to maintain physical and electrical grounding contact with the rearward facing post surface during operation of the connector, and a coupler contact portion configured to contact the rearward facing coupler surface during operation of connector.
