Discuss the benefits and methods of stripping and terminating COAX Cables.
F Compression connectors will be used for the demonstration.
We will also discuss crimp, screw, and twist-on style connectors.
With details that you will help troubleshoot and terminate them properly.
At: 26:13 on it, I have a higher number is better. This applies to setting the range on the multimeter
with manual resistance settings. When we choose a larger range like 1M Ohm we are more likely to see a zero rather than at a lower range we will see a range of numbers. With continuity, we are seeing if the wire is continuous not what the resistance is, so for people unfamiliar with the use of a meter zero is easier to understand. If you understand resistance a lower range will give you a better understanding of the cable. (This could be important if you are measuring a damaged cable as a very high resistance will not allow the signal through even though the wire has continuity. )

Great content. Well explained. Thank you very much! It has been many years since I put connectors on Coax cables... about 36. Now I find myself preparing to install some GNSS antenna systems, and to code with proper grounding.

thanks Harm, very helpful...I do a lot of work with ethernet cables but I am trying to expand my skillset and have purchased some Klein tools & connectors to also do coax...this video really spells out how to do that...good stuff!

Thank you very much! ps. Only one addition: "OL means Overload on the multimeter when testing for voltage and resistance. In these cases, it means that the multimeter limit is too low for the electronic property being measured. If you are testing for continuity, OL means Open Loop, meaning there is a break in the circuit."

great video. really clear. I looked at the wires in my house and wonder if I should change them to newer coax cables. These are what I have: TFC-T10 E86650-2 CATV 6 Series 18AWG and PPC perfect flex 6 series 18 AWG cat CL2 CL# ETL us ORCM 3088178. Could you advise.

Does the cable do the job? It looks like it is RG6 which should be good enough for cable TV/ internet or satellite TV. I would only consider replacing it if it was not doing the job, and I would always check the connectors first. Replacing cabling in a house is often not easy, so there should be a good reason to do it. That does not mean that you couldn't get better cable, and opinions will vary widely.

How do I prevent over crimping on a RG6 cable connector with a crimping tool? 20:12 I've got those cheap connectors with the blue ends, that when crimped I can no longer turn the hexagonal crew on part.
@securitywithharm6367
@securitywithharm6367 Год назад
If you use the correct tool it should not happen, I usually just use compression connectors. If you are using the same connectors that I am using at 20:12 then it is not a crimp connector it is a compression connector and you need to change the tool. If you have a compression tool and it stops moving then you need to adjust the tool so it stops the moment the blue ring reaches the collar of the connector. If you are using lineman pliers or something similar it sounds like to are crimping too close to the turning part. (Hex Screw). It should be an even hex pattern all the way around. and the cable should not be distorted. If the cable starts changing shapes then you are probably over-crimping the connector.

26:13 didn't u mean for continuity, LOWER numbers are better? We're using the multimeter as an ohmmeter here...

@@securitywithharm6367 I agree with everything you said, except I still don't understand why you would want a higher number :) Indeed, the lower the range, the higher the precision when measuring things around few Ohms, otherwise all you would get would be a false zero. Lowering the range acts as a zooming tool on the resistance. But that is a different discussion. When you're trying to see if a wire is properly conducting electricity, you still want the impedance to be as low as possible, which in the case of a DC measurement, roughly translates to the resistance being as low as possible. So with your meter on the lowest range (for accurate readings when dealing with small numbers), a measurement of 3 Ohms is way more desired than 17 Ohms, for instance.
@securitywithharm6367
@securitywithharm6367 Год назад
@@ArmWrestlingOverdose I do not disagree, but when you do not understand ohms at all then it is easier to see a zero. The best part would be if everyone doing this learned more about electricity. But many people only do it once or twice.

I used several different tools, but for F Connectors I used a Ripley tool: RIPLEY CAT-UNIV 36175-1 Universal Compression Tools For Coax Cable Connectors I have also had good luck with the Jonard Tools and Platinum Tools coax compression tools Where possible I recommend compression over crimping tools.

I see tools on Amazon for 19US or 23 Canadian depending on the model of the tool there are lots of possibilities. But tools are always a minefield when choosing brands and opinions so I don't want to recommend any specific brand. Still, something like the Klein Tools VDV212-008-SEN Compact Compression Crimper, F-Connector may work.
