Abstract: A wedge-lock type coaxial cable connector includes a main body, a ferrule locatable inside the rear end of the main body and a coupling nut. The rear end of the main body has a frusto-conical inner surface and the ferrule has a matching frusto-conical outer surface as well as an axial slit completely therethrough. When opposing forces are exerted against the rear surface of the ferrule, the ferrule is compressed and a barb on the inner surface of the ferrule engages the coaxial cable. Preferably, frusto-conical surfaces of the main body and the ferrule have interlocking axial indentations and protrusions to prevent relative axial and radial movement.
