F' Type connectors are used to connect coaxial cables to a multitude of other connectors, cables and items. They are secure, electrically balanced and with the help of Self Amalgamating tape they can provide waterproof joins for years. Most modern splitters, aerials and amplifiers use F' Type connections and there are a whole host of adaptors available that can be used to turn your F Connector into any other connector. Female connectors have a thread on the outside, male connectors have the thread on the inside and they will screw onto the outside of the female connector.
