About F-type connectors - RF Cafe Forums

RF Cafe Forums closed its virtual doors in 2010 mainly due to other social media platforms dominating public commenting venues. RF Cafe Forums began sometime around August of 2003 and was quite well-attended for many years. By 2010, Facebook and Twitter were overwhelmingly dominating online personal interaction, and RF Cafe Forums activity dropped off precipitously. Regardless, there are still lots of great posts in the archive that ware worth looking at. Below are the old forum threads, including responses to the original posts.

I am looking for a manufacturer of quality F-type connector.

I have been lookign for a flanged cable mount environmentally sealed F-type connector and hit the wall.

I know that F-type and quality are not very compatible but the application calls for it.

Any suggestions? :?: :!:

Actually I believe since the advent of digital cable TV and Cable Modem the need for a higher quality F connectors came about. Cable TV is using much higher frequencies then previously needed for analog transmission. They even have nice new way of swedging them on to the cable to keep the elements out. I would like to get the swedge tool and some of these higher quality connectors as well. I'm sure I can find them if I take a minute to look around. I'll post what I find when I have a minute.
