Coaxial cable plug connector for signal transmission - establishes contact between outer contact and screening by screw -loaded contact ring which can also include sealing ring

摘要

A high performance connector plug for coaxial cable has a main body of metal (13) with an insert of insulating material (12) including an inset metal contact (11). The contact receives the exposed end of the central conductor (1) of the cable. The contact of the outer metal screening of the cable is ring shaped (14) and the connection is made by a pressure ring (15) held in position by a threaded, hollow section, screw (16). The pressure ring fits onto the thread profile of the screening. ADVANTAGE - Low resistance, reflection and intermodulation.
