Coaxial connector assembly and antenna assembly having a switching function

摘要

A coaxial connector assembly comprisies a first coaxial connector (1) and a second coaxial connector (2) matable therewith in an axial direction. Each of the coaxial connectors includes a mating section (26, 27) having an inner contact (11, 21) surrounded by an outer contact (12, 22) and separated therefrom by a dielectric (13, 23). One of the first and second coaxial connectors has a lead-in portion (29) for guiding and locating the connector mating section of the other of the first and second coaxial connectors during plugging together. The inner contact (11) is formed by a resilient metal strip which is integrally formed with a contact portion (14) that is adapted to provide a switchable electrical connection with a corresponding counter contact portion (41) depending on the mated or unmated state of the coaxial connector assembly.
