Abstract

A cable television (CATV) housing having a screwless seizure mechanism for receiving the center conductor of a coaxial cable is disclosed. The mechanism is mounted on a printed circuit board adjacent an entry port of the CATV
housing. One end of the seizure mechanism includes a female terminal for receiving the center conductor of a cooperating CATV coaxial cable when the cable is installed on the entry port. An entry guide is provided which insulates the female terminal as well as directs the center conductor of the CATV
cable into the female terminal. A second end of the seizure mechanism is securely mounted to, and in electrical communication with, the printed circuit board. A CATV
coaxial cable installed onto the entry port of the CATV
housing is placed in electrical communication with internal electronics of the housing while still maintaining signal and power integrity without the need to disassemble the housing to secure the center conductor to the circuit board by a seizure screw.
