The Corning Gilbert UltraRange® family has
grown to include two new connectors designed
specifically to fit high braid headend cables. The
new additions are the GF-UR-59-HEC and the
GA-BNC-UR-59-HEC. The BNC connector
incorporates a pop-out pin for ease of cable
installation. The GF-UR-59-HEC is a male feed
through type “F” connector.
The BNC connector has an innovative push out
pin that eliminates blind entry when installing.
UltraRange® compression technology provides
360 degrees of contact to the cable, providing
excellent RF shielding integrity.
This one-piece design eliminates any loose parts.
Connectorization can be performed rapidly and
consistently without the risk of misalignment of
multiple parts.

59 and 6 series cables, see product infomation

connector/cable interface provides
excellent RF shielding
• BNC connector is marked by a color
coded label which displays “GILBERT”
and the cable series
• BNC series of connectors incorporate
a gold plated pop up pin to eliminate
blind entry
