A coaxial RF connector (radio frequency connector) is an electrical connector designed to work at radio frequencies in the multi-megahertz range. RF connectors are typically used with coaxial cables and are designed to maintain the shielding that the coaxial design offers. Better models also minimize the change in transmission line impedance at the connection in order to reduce signal reflection and power loss. As the frequency increases, transmission line effects become more important, with small impedance variations from connectors causing the signal to reflect rather than pass through. An RF connector must not allow external signals into the circuit through electromagnetic interference and capacitive pickup.

An apparatus includes a shaft, a slide lock, and a pin. The shaft includes a first end, a second end opposite the first end and a middle portion between the first end and the second end. The first end includes an enclosure. The middle portion includes a tapered hole. The tapered hole is tapered in a direction from the first end to the second end. The slide lock is disposed over the shaft. The pin is disposed through the tapered hole and coupled to the slide lock. The movement of the slide lock is coupled to movement of the pin within the tapered hole of the shaft. The position of the pin within the tapered hole corresponds to an amount of opening of the enclosure.
