Abstract
A coupling body for a coaxial connector is dimensioned to couple with connector body at a connector end. An inner body of the coupling body is provided with a bore dimensioned to receive the coaxial cable. The inner body is formed of transparent material partially covered in an opaque material. An uncovered portion of the inner body functions as a visual installation portal. Methods of installation include inserting the coaxial cable into the cable end of the bore of the inner body until a desired portion of a prepared end of the coaxial cable is visible.
