Connector for a coaxial cable.

摘要

A connector for a coaxial cable comprising a cap and a bottom insulating plate. The plate has mounted thereon a first and second pair of contact elements. After the end of the cable is properly prepared, the first pair of contact elements is designed to pierce the outer insulation sheath of the cable and electrically contact the outer conductor while the second pair of contact elements is designed to pierce the inner insulation sheath and contact the inner conductor. The cap has inner slots and spaces adapted to receive the contact elements and portions of the cable end so that when the cap is pressed down and latched to the bottom plate, electrical contact is made with the inner and outer conductors and all portions of the inserted cable end are properly supported, thus ensuring adequate strain-relief.
