Abstract: A device for connecting and sealing between a transmission line connector and a signal source connector includes a hollow outer conductor with an inner conductor disposed therein, and an electrical insulator disposed therebetween. One end of the outer conductor and an adjacent end of the inner conductor define a signal input connectable to the signal source connector, and opposite ends of the two conductors define a signal output connectable to the transmission line connector. The electrical insulator is hermetically sealed to the inner and outer conductors to prevent water ingress from the signal input to the signal output and vice versa. Optionally, a liquid sensor may be disposed between the inner and outer conductors to monitor the liquid content within the device.

Abstract: A connector assembly for a coaxial cable with an inner conductor and a corrugated outer conductor. The connector assembly comprises a center connector adapted to engage the end of the inner conductor of the coaxial cable, a dielectric spacer around the inner connector, an outer connector in the form of a hollow cylinder with a thick central portion for supporting a coupling nut, and thin end portions which form a pair of barrels projecting from opposite ends of the central portion. One of the barrels has a threaded inside surface for threadingly engaging the corrugated outer surface of the outer conductor of the cable. The inside wall of the outer connector forms a circumferential shoulder which extends radially inwardly along the end of the corrugated outer conductor of the cable so that when the outer connector is threaded onto the outer conductor, the shoulder is pressed into engagement with the end of the outer conductor to make electrical contact therewith.
