  • Patent number: 8414313
    Abstract: Security systems, including shields, adapters, and/or tools, for limiting access to a coaxial cable connector are provided. A shield comprises an outer shield configured to limit access to the coaxial cable connector. The coaxial cable connector comprises a fastener portion that is configured to be rotatable with respect to a body portion of the coaxial cable connector. The shield further comprises an adapter configured to be coupled to the outer shield. The adapter is configured to engage a side of the fastener portion of the coaxial cable connector. The adapter is further configured to engage a tool configured to rotate the adapter such that, when engaged with both the tool and the fastener portion of the coaxial cable connector, the adapter is configured to rotate the fastener portion of the coaxial cable connector upon rotation of the adapter by the tool.

  • Publication number: 20110117777
    Abstract: A coaxial cable connector may include a connector body having a forward end and a rearward cable receiving end for receiving a cable, a nut rotatably coupled to the forward end of the connector body, and an annular post disposed within the connector body, the annular post including an inner chamber extending axially therethrough and a first barb and a second barb. The cable connector may also include a locking sleeve including a chamber extending therethrough, a first end coupled to the connector body, a second end for receiving the cable, and at least one tooth. The locking sleeve may be configured so that when the locking sleeve is moved axially into the connector body, the at least one tooth is configured to compress the cable between the first barb and the second barb.
