Solderless connectors for semi-rigid coaxial cable

摘要

A solderless connector for semi-rigid coaxial cable having an elongate annular outer conductor, a center conductor coaxial with said outer conductor and a dielectric material spacing the inner and outer conductors apart, the connector comprising a housing having an annular portion defining a bore adapted to encompass said outer conductor and a bushing defining a bore to engage the exterior of the annular portion to circumferentially compress said annular portion upon telescoping movement of said bushing over said annular portion, said housing bore having, integral therewith, means adapted to engage said outer conductor upon said circumferential compression to provide a mechanical and electrical interface between said housing and said outer conductor.
