1. A power distributor device for interconnecting coaxial connectors of different sizes, the device comprising a metallic hollow support body, a plurality of coaxial connectors each comprising an outer socket element adapted to be fastened onto said support body and an inner pin element coaxially mounted in said socket element and electrically insulated therefrom, each pin element having a longitudinal axis, said support body comprising an outer wall surrounding an inner support body space and passageway through said outer wall opening into said inner space and each passageway adapted to allow the assembly of a coaxial connector onto said support body with the socket element of the respective coaxial connector being engaged in a respective passageway and a respective inner pin element extending through a respective passageway into said inner space and said pin element having an inner end in said inner space, the inner ends of all pin elements being electrically interconnected, the inner end of the pin element of one coaxial connector comprising a receiving pin element and terminating with a front face perpendicular to the axis of the pin element, the front face having a center recess extending from said front face axially inside said end and a plurality of holes extending radially through an end side wall surrounding said recess in a plane perpendicular to the axis of said pin element of said one coaxial connector, and said holes being angularly separated from one another, at least the inner end of the pin elements of the other coaxial connectors having a shape complementary to said radially extending holes, so that each inner end can be received in a radial hole, a passageway being provided in the outer wall of said support body in front of said recess to allow removable insertion into said recess of a means for properly positioning the inner ends of the pin elements of said other connectors within a respective radially extending hole for ensuring identical electric lengths of all connectors within the support body and allowing insertion of means for electrically connecting the inner ends of all connector pin elements within said recess.
