PL-259-CP-G is a CenterpIn PL-259 connector for RG-8X or RG-58/AU coax.The connectors are gold-plated brass to better withstand the elements and to minimise traditional connector-borne signal loss.

The perfect solution to the troublesome task of installing a PL-259 connector or splicing RG-58 A/U, RG-8/X or Lo-Max coaxial cables. Shakespeares revolutionary CenterpIn connectors are solderless, fretless, and botchless. They go on without a hitch, without soldering skills. No measuring, no critical stripping of coax insulation, no fussing with the coax’s braid, and no tinning.

The cable that connects your antenna to your radio can make or break signal quality literally. Shakespeare?s coaxial cables are tailored to the needs of marine communications, and can withstand the rigours of the boating environment.
