The UltraSeal
®
Series is the next generation
of high performance sealed compression
“F” connectors. This compression connector
series combines ease of installation with
superior performance features.
The UltraSeal 59 & 6 connector design
incorporates a free spinning nut making
installation faster and more reliable.
The one-piece design includes all brass
construction without any loose parts.
Connectorization can be performed rapidly
and consistently without the risk of
misalignment of multiple parts.
The UltraSeal compression technology
provides 360 degrees of contact to the cable,
providing excellent RF shielding integrity
and a complete seal to the cable jacket to
lock out moisture.

Materials and Construction
of Connector Components :
One step cable preparation
of 1/4 ”[6.5 mm ] Braid and
Dielectric and 5/16: [8.0 mm ]
center conductor.
Product Features and Benefits
• Three point sealing system passes
the SCTE interface moisture migration
tests and Bellcore water immersion.
• A free-spinning sealed nut design
(Patent #5975591) permits the
7/16” nut to spin freely for easy
installation.The o-ring seals when
nut is tightened.
• 360° radial compression
(Patent #5997350) at the
connector/cable interface provides
excellent RF shielding and prevents
moisture migration.
• All brass construction, no plastic parts .
• One piece construction eliminates
lost components.
• One connector for both indoor and
outdoor applications.
• One step cable preparation.
• Uses commonly available compression
tools.
• Longer hex flats facilitates easier
installation.
• Cable series permanently marked on
connector for easy identification.
• For outdoor applications, the
Gilbert Seal Ring (G-SR-1/2) will
prevent moisture from entering the
connector/equipment interface on
ports which meet SCTE IPS SP 400.
Seal rings available for non-SCTE ports.
