Sealed coaxial cable connector and related method

摘要

A coaxial cable connector includes a coupler, a post and a body member. One end of the body member includes a lip that is inserted through the opening in an annular collar of the coupler. In a cable-installed position, the shank of the post is received in the body member to form an annular chamber which is sufficiently narrow to compress the outer conductor and the jacket of a coaxial cable to establish a distal seal. Tightening of the coupler to the terminal compresses the lip between the flange of the post and the annular collar for establishing a proximal seal. Related methods also are provided.
