ABSTRACT:
A coaxial cable connector is provided for installation and use with a prepared end of a coaxial cable. The connector comprises a body and nut threadably tightenable to the body. The body includes a center pin chuck for engaging the center conductor of the cable when the nut assembly is tightened to the body. The nut defines an interior space including a mandrel assembly which is freely rotatable within the interior space until the nut is tightened to the body. The mandrel assembly includes an insulator cone for guiding the center conductor; it includes a clampling arrangement for engaging and clamping the center pin chuck as the nut is tightened to the body. The assembly further includes a mandrel which is slideably mounted under the cable outer metal jacket in a space provided after removal of a portion of the dielectric core incident to preparation of the cable end. A ferrule is slidably mounted over the outer jacket and the ferrule includes collet fingers disposed over a portion of the mandrel. The mandrel includes a ferrule collet closure for closing the collet fingers of the ferrule to cause them to compress the outer metal jacket against the portion of the mandrel as the nut is tightened to the body of the connector during installation of the connector to the prepared cable end.
