ABSTRACT: The coaxial F-port covered by this document facilitates the termination of Coaxial Connectors (Series 59, 6, 7 and 11), as described in GR-1503, Generic Requirements for Coaxial Connectors (Series 59, 6, 7, and 11), to other broadband coaxial components. The F-port is typically integrated into broadband drop passive and drop active components. The F-port is designed to accept screw-on or push-on coaxial connectors, thereby providing a robust mechanical bond and minimal Radio Frequency (RF) energy egress or ingress. Outdoor and indoor applications are addressed.

This document outlines the view of Telcordia on generic requirements for a 75 ohm coaxial F-port intended for mating to 75 ohm coaxial feedthru and pin connectors.
