Proxy
A device or program that stands in between a server (for example, a web
site) and a client (your browser), providing a way to relieve some of the
burden from the server. For example, your cable company may have a web
proxy that keeps copies of popular web pages; the proxy can send you those
pages instead of fetching them directly from the web site, resulting in faster
page loading and less network congestion.
RF

cable” and the connectors as “RF connectors.”
