Abstract
A F-type coaxial cable connector includes an outer tubular sleeve which receives an inner tubular post. The inner post includes a projecting barrel portion sized to receive the center conductor and the dielectric layer of a prepared coaxial cable end. The barrel portion includes a raised barb which separates the outer jacket and conductive braid or foil of the coaxial cable, the post further including an annular flange having a circumferential cavity which receives the end of the separated cable jacket and braid, providing a 360° seal. The post and rotating nut are driven longitudinally into the stationary outer sleeve to crimp the connector and to complete the cable termination.
