US Patent 7347729 Prepless coaxial cable connector

A coaxial cable connector includes a connector body and an annular post coupled to the connector body. The connector body has a rearward cable receiving end and an internal threaded surface defined in the rearward cable receiving end. The internal threaded surface is adapted to threadably engage an outer surface of a coaxial cable. The annular post has a rearward cable insertion end disposed within the connector body, which preferably defines a sharp edge adapted to penetrate an end of the cable as the connector body is threaded on the outer surface of the cable.
