I really like these connectors.  Unlike regular N, these do not come 
apart.  The assembly of the inner part is much like assembling an UHF 
connector.

To measure, I just line up the coax with the connector, parallel with 
each other and remove the shield, dielectric from tip of the connector 
to a little above the hole for soldering the shield.  I then remove 
another 1/4 to 3/8 inch of jacket to expose the shield.

Hope this helps,
Rajiv, N2RD
