[QUOTE="satelliteman, post: 727902, member: 255812"] Not essential but no harm in doing so. The Cabelcon connectors with an O-ring don't actually need additional sealing, as with other similar connectors. The unique NiTin-6™ plated Cabelcon with EPDM sealing in the nut and the compression sealing to the cable makes them 100 % waterproof IPX8 (30m/8h). When the nut is tightened the EPDM O-ring between the nut and the front part of the connector prevents water immersion from the front side. Thus the connection is completely watertight without any additional sealing. Source: cabelcon [/QUOTE]
