  • RF test connector plug locking system
    Patent number: 6501960
    Abstract: An RF test connector plug (30) for securing an opening (32) to access an RF test connector (33) for testing an electrical connection of an antenna (26) of a radio communication device (20) that allows testing of an antenna connection and prevents removal by a user. First and second leg members (40, 46) of the RF test connector plug (30) extend upward from a lower portion (38) shaped to conform to a curvature of an outer surface of the radio communication device. First and second tabs (52, 54) are positioned at the opening (32) to secure and to position the first leg member (40) and the second leg member (46), respectively, along the antenna (26) to prevent rotation of the RF test connector plug (30) within the opening (32).
