I have a RF cable placed inside a tube which blind mates with the mating connector located on a back wall, and It's difficult to secure the cable, I can only push it in, no mechanical connection other than tynes and spring blindmate contact. I don't want the cable to move during travel. I'm handcuffed with solutions.
RF cables that blind mate bounce around.
I'd like to add adhesive/epoxy/RTV in the tube to stabilize the RF cable at it's mating connector.
One thought is foam in place, or RTV in place, or ? you suggest.
We need to remove this cable, and the added foam/RTV/? for depot repair occasionally.
Our max temp isn't too high, maybe 70C.
So if material flows, and rehardens, that might be acceptable.
Suggestions?
