    摘要: A composite water blocking shield includes: a first shield portion; an insulator portion surrounding the first shield portion; a second shield portion surrounding the insulator portion; and a water blocking portion surrounding the second shield portion. The insulator portion is adjacent to the first shield portion, the second shield portion is adjacent to the insulator portion, and the water blocking portion is adjacent to the second shield portion; the first shield portion, the insulator portion, the second shield portion, and the water blocking portion form a single tape that is configured to be applied to an outside of a portion of a cable as a single unit; and the composite water blocking shield provides radio frequency shielding and water blocking in a single tape so as to provide radio frequency shielding and water blocking in a compact cable.

    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: An angled coaxial cable adapter may include a housing portion structurally configured to include a first RF signal wave receiving portion and a second RF signal wave receiving portion and a conductive portion structurally configured to pass an RF signal through the first RF signal wave receiving portion and the second RF signal wave receiving portion. The first RF signal wave receiving portion may be configured to be disposed at an angle relative to the second RF signal wave receiving portion, and the conductive portion may be structurally configured to include a bend. The RF signal wave blocking portion may be structurally configured to block the first RF signal wave and the second RF signal wave from interfering with one another so as to reduce potential noise when a signal changes direction at the bend of the conductive element such that the adapter can provide an enhanced RF signal.

    摘要: A coaxial connector that may include a connector portion, a coupler portion that may be configured to be coupled with the connector portion, and a post portion that may comprise a forward post portion and a rearward post portion that is configured to form an electrical ground path with the forward post portion during operation of the connector. The forward post portion may comprise a forward post engagement portion that is configured to engage a rearward post engagement portion of the rearward post portion such that the forward post portion and the rearward post portion are fixed relative to each other. The forward post engagement portion may be configured to engage the rearward post engagement portion to provide the electrical ground path between the forward post engagement portion and the rearward post engagement portion so as to provide a ground path that extends from an outer conductor of a coaxial cable through the forward and rearward post engagement portions and to the post portion.

    摘要: A cable connector including: a body; a nose having a forward nose portion, a rearward nose portion that is configured to be coupled with the body, and a recessed nose portion; a coupler configured to be coupled with the forward nose portion; a conductor configured to be supported in the body and the nose portion; and a biasing portion configured to be received in the recessed nose portion. The coupler is configured to be rotatably coupled to the nose; and the biasing portion is configured to biasingly provide an electrical ground path between the nose and the coupler so as to improve an electrically conductive connection between an outer conductor of a coaxial cable and the coupler when the coupler is not connected to an interface port, when the coupler is loosely coupled to the interface port, and when the coupler is fully tightened to the interface port.
