The '''C connector''' is a type of [[RF connector]] used for terminating [[coaxial cable]]. The interface specifications for the C and many other connectors are referenced in MIL-STD-348.<ref name="MIL-STD-348">{{cite book |title=RADIO FREQUENCY CONNECTOR INTERFACES FOR MIL-DTL-3643, MIL-DTL-3650, MIL-DTL-3655, MIL-DTL-25516, MIL-PRF-31031, MIL-PRF-39012, MIL-PRF-49142, MIL-PRF-55339, MIL-DTL-83517 |date=2017-01-22 |publisher=US DOD |edition=B with change 3 |url=http://quicksearch.dla.mil/qsDocDetails.aspx?ident_number=35726}}</ref> The connector uses  two-stud [[bayonet mount|bayonet-type]] locks. The C connector was invented by [[Amphenol]] engineer [[Carl Concelman]]. It is weatherproof without being overly bulky. The mating arrangement is similar to that of the [[BNC connector]].<ref> Keith B. Schaub, Joe Kelly, ''Production Testing of RF and System-on-a-chip Devices for Wireless Communications'', Artech House, 2004, {{ISBN|1580538487}} page 230 </ref> It can be used up to 11 GHz, and is rated for up to 1500 volts.
