1. A coaxial cable connector comprising:
a connector body configured to be attached to a post, the connector body being a separate component from the post and configured to prevent axial movement between the body and the post when the body is attached to the post, the connector body having a first end, a second end, and an annular outer surface proximate the second end, the annular outer surface comprising a surface other than the second end of the connector body that is cylindrical and located near the second end of the connector body; a coupling element configured to be rotated about the post, wherein the coupling element has an inner surface located inside the coupling element, and a radial end face surface extending outwardly from the inner surface, the radial end face surface comprising a radial surface that is configured to face an end of the coaxial cable toward a longitudinal direction of the coaxial cable connector; and a continuity element having a first surface and a second surface, the first surface contacting only the radial end face surface of the coupling element and the second surface contacting only the annular outer surface of the connector body, the continuity element being separated from the post and positioned outside the inner surface of the coupling element and outside the connector body such that no portion of the continuity element is located either inside the connector body or inside the radial end face surface of the coupling element; wherein the continuity element is configured to maintain an electrical connection between the coupling element and the connector body toward an axial direction, the axial direction comprising a general direction of a main axis of the coaxial cable connector and is not limited to a direction that is perfectly parallel to the main axis. |
