Connector

摘要

A connector for high frequency signals comprises a housing of insulating material and a plurality of male contact elements. The housing has a bottom and two opposite side walls extending upwardly from the bottom, the bottom and side walls determining a receiving space. The bottom is provided with cavities regularly arranged in rows and columns. Each of the contact elements is mounted in a cavity, an upper end of each contact element projecting into the receiving space. At least a plurality of the cavities are metallized at their the inner walls. The contact elements are mounted in the metallized cavities by means of a support element of insulating material. Each support has a lower extension directed away from the receiving space and each support element is metallized at its outer side.
