  • Device for testing coaxial connectors
    Patent number: 6538452
    Abstract: A testing device provides pin height, continuity, and concentricity testing for coaxial connectors and cables. The testing device provides connector jacks with support shafts that properly align and stabilize the connectors during testing. Circuitry is provided to indicate if the pin height is sufficient, if the cable is an open circuit, a short circuit, or has an adequate continuity, and if the center pin of the connector is sufficiently concentric with the outer sleeve. The jacks may have an outer surface with slots providing a slip fit configuration that allows the coaxial connector to be easily inserted and removed.
