I would stay away from the compression type connectors. The captive plastic
piece tends to wear or break and the ferrel becomes loose. Crimp style is tried
and true for the best results Canare makes a good product but most of their
stuff requires their strippers for optimum results. I personally would
recommend ADC or Kings connectors, Belden cable, and Exelite strippers.

LOL

When even Ideal sells a compression tool and connectors I don't think
there's an issue. The 70 motel rooms and bar I did 4 years ago with
compression fittings has had one failure and that's even after the PPV
drones came in and messed with the feeds.

Maybe Time Worthless is next to go back to crimps next month.....

Never seen that happen. If you're qorried about the plastic piece, then use
ones that have no plastic, such as SuperLok or PCT
