ABSTRACT:
A snap together cable connector for polyethylene jacketed cable, such as used in cable television systems in Europe, is comprised of a sleeve which snap fits into a first end of a collar. The collar further includes a post which is shorter in length than convention coaxial cable connectors, thus the European 8 mm cable and its associated stiff polyethylene jacket are more easily insertable. Also included as part of the collar is a back insulator for insulation of the coaxial connectors center conductor. The connector further includes a nut which fits over a second end of the collar. The nut includes a stem and an insulator. A terminal is fit within the insulator, the terminal making contact with the center conductor of the coaxial cable when the connector is assembled. O-rings are provided between the collar and sleeve connection, and between the collar and nut connection. The sleeve includes an internal annular ridge to aid in environmental sealing and to minimize RF signal loss.
