This assembly describes a specific type of radio frequency (RF) connector configuration used in situations where a coaxial cable needs to pass through a window. It consists of a TNC (Threaded Neill-Concelman) male connector attached to a specific type of coaxial cable (RG174) designed for installation in a window frame. An example of its use could be in setting up an antenna for a radio receiver or transmitter where drilling through an external wall is not feasible or desirable.
The advantage of using this configuration lies in its ability to establish an RF connection without requiring permanent alterations to a building’s structure. This provides a non-invasive method of routing coaxial cable from an indoor device to an outdoor antenna, enabling signal transmission or reception. The TNC connector offers a threaded interface that provides a secure and reliable connection, while the RG174 cable’s flexibility and smaller diameter make it suitable for window installations where space may be limited. Such assemblies have become increasingly important in urban environments and rental properties where permanent installations are restricted.
