ABSTRACT:
The invention hereof relates to an improved Type "F" connector, where the contact and ground interfaces are sealed from the outside environment. The connector comprises a connector body, a dielectric insert to be received within the connector body, where the insert includes a generally uniform central bore, a metal wedge member featuring at least one annular serration, about a conically configured end thereof, where the wedge member is received within the insert and the serration is spaced from the wall of the bore prior to assembly of the connector. During assembly of the coaxial cable, the metal braid and jacket are captured between the serrations and the wall of the insert bore. Finally, elastomeric sealing means are provided at each end of the connector to environmentally protect same.
