1. An F-Type coaxial connector for passing CATV signals, the connector comprising:
- a body including a female port coaxially arranged about a centerline;
within the connector body, a moveable contact and a stationary contact, the contacts electrically isolated from the body;
the moveable contact carried by a nose urged by a spring to project from a female port mouth; and
,a gap between opposing ends of the contacts and along the centerline when the female port is not mated with a male coaxial connector;
wherein a projecting portion of the nose is pushed into the body when the female port is mated with a male connector such that the gap is closed and an electrical circuit between the contacts is completed.

8. An F-Type coaxial connector for passing CATV signals, the connector comprising:
-
a body, an electrical contact, and a metallic disk shaped waveguide; the body including a female port coaxially arranged about a centerline; the electrical contact aligned along the centerline and electrically isolated from the body; the waveguide in a plane perpendicular to the centerline and bearing on an internal surface of the body; and
,the centerline passing through a central aperture of the waveguide; wherein the waveguide is configured to limit entry of stray RF signals into a body cavity enclosing the electrical contact. - View Dependent Claims (9, 10, 11, 12)
