Abstract (en)
[origin: GB2504734A] A male F-connector 20 that provides EM screening and prevents RF leakage comprises: a cable mounting body 22 that receives a coaxial cable 16; and a ferrule 24 with an annular lip 26 that defines a cylindrical receiving portion (or ferrule cup) 28 that is capable of receiving a mating female F-connector. An internally threaded nut spinner 32 has an integral securing means (e.g. a deflectable lip or a spring lock ring) which is adjustable between a first position to allow the nut spinner 32 to be placed over the ferrule 24 and a second position to permanently fix the nut spinner 32 to the ferrule 24. The ferrule 24 and lip 26 are made of metal (usually plated machine brass). A metal ring spring 30 may be located within the cylindrical receiving portion 28 to ensure good electrical connection between the ferrule 24 and the female F-connector. When in use and fully tightened, the flat end of the mating female F-connector presses against the planar floor of the cylindrical receiving portion 28 to prevent RF radiation ingress or egress.
