Positioned as a foundation for contractor-installers in home theater, CATV, satellite systems and security applications, the kit also includes 10 different types of Ideal's InSite and RTQ compression connectors, plus adapters for HD video and analog cameras, DVRs, and/or other video surveillance equipment.

With comfortable ergonomics and a sturdy metal construction, Ideal's OmniSEAL Pro XL compression tool, also included, employs a smooth, one-cycle motion for compressing F-type, RCA, RG11, BNC and mini connectors onto coaxial cable for permanent, high-integrity connections. Ideal notes that, with its universal design, the OmniSeal Pro XL eliminates the need to carry multiple crimp or compression tools.
The tool is factory preset and calibrated to terminate all Ideal-branded compression connectors; in addition, it can terminate other manufacturers' connectors simply by adjusting the tool's plunger depth, with no adapters required. A handy 7/16-inch hex socket is also built-in to install CATV connectors.
