An RF compression connector includes a simplified clamp mechanism having a common clamp base, and a plurality of segments disposed on the common clamp base wherein the segments include alternating first and second retention members disposed along the circumference of the clamp, wherein each of the first retention members has an outwardly projecting shoulder to engage a connector body and each of the second retention members includes an inwardly projecting shoulder to engage an outer jacket of a coaxial cable connector. The first and second retention members of the clamp mechanism inhibit separation of the connector body relative to the coaxial cable.

A plug connector arrangement having a plug connector and a cable connected thereto, at least one inner conductor and an outer conductor surrounding the inner conductor, wherein the outer conductor of the cable is electrically connected to an outer conductor housing of the plug connector. The plug connector arrangement additionally has a sleeve part which surrounds the inner conductor, has approximately the same inner diameter (D) as the outer conductor (34) of the cable, adjoins a front axial end (A) of the outer conductor, and continues a shielding of the inner conductor in the direction of the front cable end.

A connector includes: (i) an inner conductor engager comprising at least one tab being flexible to define an opening engager, (ii) a driver configured to drive the inner conductor engager to a desired position along the inner conductor, and (iii) a housing coupled to the inner conductor engager. The opening is configured to receive an inner conductor of a coaxial cable and extends through the entire inner conductor engager thus allowing the inner conductor to electrically connect to an interface port.

A coaxial cable connector is provided in the present invention. The coaxial cable connector comprises a nut and a mandrel. The nut surrounds an axis, the nut comprising a body member and an extension member, the body member is connected to the extension member, and the body member has a threaded section. The mandrel surrounds the axis, arranged correspondingly to the nut, and includes a head and a body, the head is connected to the body. Wherein the mandrel is disposed passed through the nut, and when the mandrel is passed through the nut, the head is in contact with the body member of the nut through the threaded section, and the body is in close contact with the extension member.

A cable connector that may include a first coupler portion, a second coupler portion that may be configured to be coupled with the first coupler portion, an outer conductor engager portion that may be supported in at least a portion of the first coupler portion, and a retaining portion that may be configured to be received by the outer conductor engager portion. The first coupler portion may be configured to receive a cable, the retaining portion may comprise an engagement portion, and the retaining portion may be configured to engage the outer conductor engager portion and the retaining portion may be configured to engage the first portion so as to retain the outer conductor engager portion in the first coupler portion to restrain the outer conductor engager portion from separating from the first coupler portion before the second coupler portion is coupled to the first coupler portion and electrically connect the outer conductor engager portion to the first coupler portion so as to provide an electrical path from the cable to the first coupler portion during operation of the connector.

Cable connector installation tools are provided. In one aspect, a tool includes removable nubs configured to set trim distances from the end of a cable to a blade in the tool. In another aspect, a tool includes jaws configured to force end connector components together, one of which being temporarily engaged by an interface nub.

A coaxial cable connector assembly includes a coupler, a rear body assembly rotatably engaged with the coupler, the rear body assembly including a stationary retention member defining an stationary retention member inner channel surface and one or more stationary retention member grooves extending inwardly from the stationary retention member inner channel surface, a movable retention member that is movable with respect to the stationary retention member in an axial direction, the movable retention member defining a movable retention member inner channel surface and one or more movable retention member grooves extending inwardly from the movable retention member inner channel surface, the one or more movable retention member grooves defining a movable retention member groove surface, and one or more compression rings positioned at least partially within the one or more stationary retention member grooves.

A cable connector that includes an inner subassembly that includes a coupling nut for coupling to a mating connector or port and a post end for electrically connecting to a cable. An outer body includes separable sections that form an inner bore when assembled. The inner bore is configured to receive at least the post end of the inner subassembly. Each section of the outer body has a proximal end and a distal end and the distal ends are configured to accept the cable. The sections are releasably engaged for assembly of the outer body around at least a portion of the inner subassembly.

An electrical plug connector for a cable has a compression sleeve and a stop element that is axially adjacent to and connected to the compression sleeve. The compression sleeve has an inner lateral surface thread that is screwable to an outer lateral surface thread of an outer conductor of the cable. The outer conductor is clampable between the compression sleeve and an axial end region of the stop element, and in an assembled state, a longitudinal axis of the compression sleeve, is tilted relative to a longitudinal axis of the stop element; or b) a normal vector of a plane spanned by an edge between an end face and an inner lateral surface of the stop element is rotated by orientation angle (φ.sub.A) relative to the longitudinal axis of the compression sleeve; or c) the edge has a helical course in a longitudinal axis direction of the plug connector.
