Outer conductor attachment apparatus for coaxial connector

摘要

An outer conductor attachment apparatus for use with a coaxial cable connector. The apparatus comprises a truncated cone shaped member having a longitudinal passage extending therethrough for insertion of the inner conductors of a coaxial cable. Adjacent the larger end of the cone shaped member, there is an annular groove. An annular locking ring sized to fit into the groove, is expandable so that it can be slid over the cone shaped member and into the groove. A clamping member is securable over the cone shaped member and the ring to clamp the outer conductor between the outer surface of the cone shaped member and the inner surfaces of the clamping member and locking ring.
