Abstract:
1. A coaxial cable connector compression tool comprising: a body; an actuator in communication with the body, the actuator comprising a handle having two levers extending from the body, the two levers rotatable about a fulcrum; a first channel operatively associated with the body and dimensioned for receiving a first coaxial cable connector, the first channel including a first recess extending from a first plane, wherein the first channel is configured to compress the first coaxial cable connector; and a second channel operatively associated with the body and dimensioned for receiving a second coaxial cable connector having different dimensions than the first coaxial cable connector, the second channel including a second recess wherein the second channel is configured to compress the second coaxial cable connector, and wherein the second recess extends from a second plane, the second plane being parallel to the first plane, wherein a portion of the body separates the first recess from the second recess; wherein compression of the two levers about the fulcrum initiates compression of both the first and second channels.
