A transmitter/antenna bay for selectively connecting at least two coaxial lines of a plurality of coaxial lines via flange sockets incorporated in the front panel of the transmitter/antenna bay includes a locking apparatus for latching the housing of a pluggable coaxial transmission line or coaxial switch with the front panel. The locking apparatus includes lever locks arranged at the narrow sides of the housing at a level of the flange socket. Each lever lock comprises an approximate L-shaped hook with a short leg grasping behind a continuous collar of the flange socket in locking position of the hook and with a long leg which is swingably mounted and guided for longitudinal displacement. The long leg of the hook is articulated to one arm of a two-armed locking lever which is pivoted to a support. Defined between the point of articulation of the hook to the locking lever and the collar in the area which is engaged by the short leg is a line of action which extends on one side of the pivot pin in locking position and on the other side of said pivot pin in disengaged position so as to attain a self-locking mechanism.
