The High Performance F-Connector For All CATV and Broadband Installations PV6UE-05
Overview of Features:
- Designed for CATV, DBS, DSS and
broadband installations. Compatible
with all application frequencies.
- Engineered from precision machined
copper alloy, UV protected POM, PVC
and rubber (”O” ring).
- Mil spec bright nickle plating on all
metal parts.
- The ANYTOOL™ design works with
ANY standard compression tool.
- End Bell cannot back up. Locks coax
cable securely and positively in place.
- Maximum performance with full
attention to all internal design
components reduces your cost.
- Available with customized imprinted
silicone rubber OEM bands (special order).
PV6U-E Application
This universal connector fits any standard quad-shield, trishield or dual shield RG-6 75 Ohm coax cable.
Cable Preparation
The coax should have a 1/4” exposed braid and 1/4”
exposed center conductor.
Compression Tool ‘Specifications’
Any compression tool with a “closed” gap close to 21mm
will work. This includes all full capture dies as well as open
top designs. Tool wear is not a factor as long as the closed
gap approaches 21 mm ±.
Electrical and General Specifications:
Bandwidth - 2 Mhz to 3 Ghz
Impedance - 75 Ohms nominal
Shielding Effectiveness - better than -90dB

This is our ‘Universal’ fit RIDGELOC 360. Like all previous models it’s textured sleeve cylinder and the end bell capture rings prevent backing up
regardless of where the end bell is located on the sleeve after compression. The coax is POSITIVELY captured by the end bell every time. Use ANY Standard compression
tool with a compression length approximately 21 millimeters ± and the RIDGELOC 360 always installs correctly for maximum quality and performance. The RIDGELOC 360 is
suitable for indoor applications and is tested to SCTE standards and weatherproof for hostile outdoor environments. Other features include an extremely rugged
machined body.
