Abstract

An insulator for supporting an inner contact within a coaxial cable connector; the coaxial cable connector for coupling with a coaxial cable having an outer conductor and an inner conductor. The insulator formed as a monolithic dielectric body provided with a mounting portion proximate a connector end, the mounting portion dimensioned to seat within a connector body of the coaxial cable connector. A bore through the dielectric body dimensioned to seat the inner contact therein provided with an annular first seal groove in an inner diameter of the bore proximate a cable end, an inner conductor seal disposed in the first seal groove. The inner conductor seal dimensioned to seal between the insulator and the inner conductor when the inner conductor is coupled to the inner contact.
