A system is provided for firmly attaching a coaxial cable terminus to a standard connection jack in such a way that the connection point is effectively shielded from tampering by individuals and is effectively sealed from degrading elements in the atmosphere. The system includes a jack attachment member having a collet structure, a swagging shell which slips over the collet structure to accomplish a firm connection with the jack and a single or preferred multi-chamber locking shroud which surrounds the swagging cylinder so as to make it difficult to de-attach and/or re- attach the cable terminus to the jack without special tooling. The preferred multi-chamber locking shroud of the invention makes it even more difficult to de-attach and/or re-attach the cable terminus to the jack without special tooling. The use of the locking shroud and especially the preferred shroud further makes it difficult to break off the locking shroud by twisting the shroud, such as with a pair of pliers. Such special tooling, however, is simple and inexpensive for authorized service technicians, thereby making the system at once relatively secure from tampering and atmospheric degradation and simple and inexpensive to install and maintain. Furthermore, the system can be retrofitted into existing coaxial cable equipment, using standard coaxial cable connection jacks.
