FAQs

What type of cable is compatible with these connectors?

These connectors are specifically designed for use with 6.35mm diameter RG-6 coaxial cable.

Do I need any special tools for installation?

No, these are twist-on connectors, so no tools are required.

How tight should I twist the connector?

Twist the connector until it is snug. Avoid over-tightening.

Can I reuse these connectors?

While the connectors can be reused, it is recommended to replace them if they become damaged or if the connection is unreliable.

What if the connector doesn't fit the cable?

Double-check that you are using 6.35mm RG-6 cable. If the cable is too large or small, the connector will not fit properly.

How do I ensure a good connection?

Make sure the cable end is stripped correctly and inserted fully into the connector before twisting. Ensure a snug fit.

Troubleshooting

Poor signal quality or loss of signal.

Check the connection to ensure it is securely twisted on. Make sure the cable is properly prepared, with no exposed shielding touching the center conductor.
