The Corning Gilbert UltraEase®family includes
RCA, BNC and pin-type “F”male connectors.
The RCA and BNC connectors are available for
59, 6, and mini coax series of cables. The pin-
type “F” male connector is available for mini
coax cables.
All of these connectors have an innovative push-
out pin (7,153,159) that eliminates blind entry
when installing. In addition, the UltraEase com-
pression technology provides 360 degrees of
contact to the cable, providing excellent RF
shielding integrity.
The UltraEase design gives the lowest activation
force available in a high performance compres-
sion connector. This one-piece design eliminates
any loose parts. Connectorization can be per-
formed rapidly and consistently without the risk
of misalignment of multiple parts.
For information on “F” feedthru UltraEase
for 59 and 6 series cables, see product
infomation G-1400-642.
