Patent ID: 8454384

Claim:
A coaxial connector for use with a coaxial cable with an outer conductor, comprising: a connector body provided with a connector body bore; an annular coupling groove provided in the connector body bore open to a cable end of the connector body; a clamp sidewall of the coupling grove angled inward from a bottom of the coupling groove; a slip ring seated within the coupling body bore, provided with a plurality of coupling spring fingers extending towards a connector end, an inner diameter of the coupling spring fingers provided with a grip surface; and an annular compression body seated on an outer diameter of the slip ring between a compression surface of the coupling body and an upward projecting compression body shoulder of the coupling spring fingers; the connector body and the coupling body coupled together via threads; the slip ring dimensioned for axial advancement of the coupling body along the threads to drive the compression body against the compression shoulder to exert a compression force against a leading edge of the outer conductor to clamp the leading edge of the outer conductor against the clamp sidewall.
