Abstract: A moisture detector detects moisture in a coaxial cable. The moisture detector may include a moisture detection portion disposed in at least a portion of a cavity portion and configured to engage a cable moisture alert portion that is configured to generate a cable moisture alert when moisture is present in the cavity portion, and wherein the moisture detection portion is configured to generate a moisture detected signal when moisture is present in the cavity portion and cause the cable moisture alert portion to generate the cable moisture alert that moisture is present in the coaxial cable when moisture is present in the cavity portion.
