  • Ground maintaining auto seizing coaxial cable connector
    Patent number: 8585438
    Abstract: A coaxial cable female connector for inclusion in a port of a device or outer shell of a cable connector, includes a centrally located female pin within a pin carrier, the pin has an upper portion with two opposing resilient arms configured for receiving the central pin of a mating male connector. A non-electrically conductive cap is partially covered with an electrically conductive coating, and configured for seating upon said pin carrier, and for maintaining a ground or electrical connection between a shell of a male connector mated to a shell of the female connector, even if the male connector mating to the female connector loosens.

  • High-frequency uninterruptible signal and power bypass
    Patent number: 7807935
    Abstract: High frequency signals and power carried in a main cable delivering the same to a device are insured continuance flow within the main cable through use of a shorting bypass bar assembly in the device that is activated to electrically connect input and output ports of the device whenever the cover of the device is removed for servicing, for insuring continuity of the signal and power flow through the main cable. The shorting bypass bar itself is electrically connected to ground whenever the cover of the device is installed and the shorting bypass bar is disabled.

  • Low pass filter for a junction box
    Patent number: 6018278
    Abstract: In junction boxes for coupling T.V. signals and low frequency power waves on a coax line to a plurality of users, the T.V. signals are coupled via connections in a first compartment to a plurality of coax cables, and the low frequency power wave are coupled via low pass-filters to IDC connections in a second compartment.Leads from users are passed through a chamber on the wall of the second compartment containing a self-healing, self-supporting insulating substance and attached to the IDC connectors. The IDC connectors permit the lead to be paired through them so that an installer can know when the leads are properly partitioned.
