Abstract: A cable connector structurally configured to facilitate accurate trimming of a connector conductor of the connector to provide consistent radio frequency performance of the connector, including: a connector portion structurally configured to connect to an adapter; and a connector conductor structurally configured to extend from the connector portion. The connector conductor comprises a marking; the connector conductor is structurally configured to electrically connect to a conductor of a cable; the connector conductor is structurally configured to be received by the adapter; and the marking is structurally configured to indicate a cut location of the connector conductor so as to provide consistent radio frequency performance of the cable connector when connected to the adapter.

Abstract: A cable tap comprising: a first port configured to receive a connector; a second port; and a pin setting device installed within the second port, the pin setting device comprising: a plunger; and a biasing member configured to provide a biasing force to the plunger, which causes the plunger to apply a retaining force to the connector installed in the first port.

Abstract: A signal conditioning module for a cable tap may include a reversible jumper having at least one pair of U-shaped wires, a first body configured to receive the at least one pair of U-shaped wires on opposite ends within the first body and protruding through recesses within the first body; and a second body configured to cover the first body and retain the at least one pair of wires in place. The first body and the second body are configured to be connected together to form a t-shape, the first body and the second body having a set of first edges that are angled with respect to opposite second edges. A printed circuit board (PCB) includes at least two sets of contacts, wherein the PCB is configured to connect with the reversible jumper and selectively form a first electrical path of at least two electrical paths through the PCB when the reversible jumper is installed in the PCB in a first position.
