Claim:
A coaxial cable connector for terminating a coaxial cable, the coaxial cable comprising an inner conductor, an insulating layer surrounding the inner conductor, a corrugated outer conductor surrounding the insulating layer, and a jacket surrounding the corrugated outer conductor, the coaxial cable connector comprising: cooperating surfaces, at least one of the cooperating surfaces comprising an angled surface; a gap defined between the cooperating surfaces, wherein when the coaxial cable connector is in a first position, the gap is configured to receive a section of the corrugated outer conductor; a conductive pin configured to receive the inner conductor; and a jacket seal other than the cooperating surfaces, the jacked seal being configured to engage the jacket, wherein the coaxial cable connector is configured to be transitioned from the first position to a second position, wherein in the second position: (a) at least a portion of the section of the corrugated outer conductor is engaged between the cooperating surfaces, wherein the angled surface is engaged with an inside surface of the portion of the corrugated outer conductor; (b) the jacket seal is engaged with the jacket; and (c) the conductive pin receives part of the inner conductor.
