Kits and connectors for CATV and VSAT applications

11 February 2004 Interconnection

Webb Industries has won the distribution rights for Stirling, well-known Canadian specialists in F connectors for CATV and VSAT applications.

According to Webb's Fanie Viljoen the F connector is a very simple connector where the inner conductor of the coaxial cable is used as the centre pin.

"Stirling connectors have changed the image of the connector through developing a durable and robust product which is fitted with a specially designed compression tool making it literally impossible to pull the connector off the coaxial cable," explains Viljoen.

The preparation and assembly tools come in a kit which includes amongst others a compression tool and a cable stripping tool. According to Webb, many leading VSAT managers to whom they have supplied the kit say that it has made a significant difference to the quality and the ease of connection in the VSAT and CATV industries.

Viljoen says that Webb will cater for three types of Stirling cables - the RG6/U; RG11/U and the RG59/U.
