[QUOTE="Terryl, post: 1023714, member: 369937"] I just use the screw on terminations but break off the center pins,(if termination is not needed) if used outside without a protective cover I use some dielectric grease to seal them to keep water out, this will cap them off. Some come with little plastic caps on the ports, use them to keep the weather out. Another way to do this is to use a weatherproof coax connector (without the coax in it) with the end sealed with hot glue. If not specified to be used for the brand of switch your using then don't use a 75 ohm terminator cap. [/QUOTE]
