<p>An interconnection system comprising two coaxial cables (20, 20') connected together by matable connector halves (30a, 30b, 40a, 40b) is disclosed. A first half of the matable connector halves (30a, 30b, 40a, 40b) is a male connector half formed of a first insulating housing (40) in which is disposed at least one conductive pin (50) which is electrically connected to the center conductor (100) of one of the two coaxial cables (20, 20'). The conductive pin (50) is at least partly captivated by a first dielectric bead (60) within a first connector shield (55). The first connector shield (55) is electrically connected with the cable outer shield (110) of the same one of the two coaxial cables (20). A second half of the matable connector halves (30a, 30b, 40a, 40b) is a female connector half formed of a second insulating housing (80) in which is disposed at least one conductive receptacle (70) which is electrically connected to the cable center conductor (100') of the other one of the two coaxial cables (20') and is at least partly captivated by a second dielectric bead (90) within a second connector shield (75). The second connector shield (75) is electrically connected with the cable outer shield (110') of the other one of the two coaxial cables (20'). The conductive receptacle (70) is dimensioned to accept the conductive pin (50) and the second insulating housing (80) with second dielectric bead (90) is dimensioned to accept the first insulating housing (40) with the first dielectric bead (60).</p> |
