Closed end coaxial connector

摘要

A telecommunications coaxial connector comprises a body with a first open end, an opposite second open end and an axial opening defined through the body, a cap positioned about the first open end. The cap is electrically connected with the body and includes a side wall, an open end aligned with the axial opening and a continuous ring about the open end of the cap and an integral spring member defined in the side wall. A center conductor is positioned within the axial opening such that the center conductor extends into the cap and an insulator electrically isolating the center conductor from the body. The present invention also relates to a telecommunications chassis including an enclosure with open ends and a bulkhead with coaxial telecommunications connectors, the bulkhead positioned across an open end with the coaxial telecommunications connectors within the enclosure. The present invention further relates to a method of assembling a telecommunications coaxial connector and a method of forming a cap for a telecommunications coaxial connector.
