MULTIPLE-POSITION PUSH-ON ELECTRICAL CONNECTOR

摘要

A multi-port, electrical connector (100) includes a housing (105) having cable ports (122-128) for coaxial cables on a cable side (101) of the housing and male push-on ports for female connectors on a male side. Each cable port has nonstandard internal threads (160). Each coaxial cable is terminated with a cable adapter (120). A coaxial cable-cable adapter combination is removably secured to each cable port by a clamp nut (130) having nonstandard external threads (660). Each coaxial cable-cable adapter combination is individually field replaceable. Another multi-port electrical connector includes a housing having male, push-on ports on a male side of the housing and printed wiring board (PWB) ports on a PWB side. Each PWB port includes a straight PWB pin for insertion into a hole in a PWB.
