Abstract

Coaxial cable connectors with a strain relief clamp. In one example embodiment, a coaxial cable connector for terminating a coaxial cable is provided. The coaxial cable includes an inner conductor, an insulating layer surrounding the inner conductor, an outer conductor surrounding the insulating layer, and a jacket surrounding the outer conductor. The coaxial cable connector includes an inner conductor clamp configured to engage the inner conductor, an outer conductor clamp configured to engage the outer conductor, a strain relief clamp configured to exert a first inwardly-directed radial force against the coaxial cable, and a moisture seal configured to exert a second inwardly-directed radial force against the jacket. The first force is greater than the second force.
