Multi-position coaxial cable connector
First Claim
1. A coaxial cable connector for connection to coaxial conductor having an outer conductor and an inner conductor, the connnector comprising a housing having a base part, a cover part, and a coaxial terminal having an inner contact mounted in a dielectric and a conductive outer concentric shroud, the inner contact for connection to the cable inner conductor and the outer concentric shroud for contact to the cable outer conductor, characterized in that the base part comprises a mounting face that has a groove of a substantially partially cylindrical shape for receiving the cable outer conductor there againgst, the cover part having a clamping portion adapted to clamp the outer conductor in the groove, the groove being electrically conductive and electrically interconnected to the outer concentric shroud by integral formation therewith.

Abstract
A multi-position coaxial cable connector comprises a conductive housing and cover part mountable together for clamping coaxial leads therebetween. The conductive housing is provided with integrally moulded shrouds surrounding receptacle and pin contacts respectively. The contacts are mounted to a dielectric housing positioned in a recess of the housing and have a central bore with spring contacts therein. The central conductor of the leads can be inserted into the spring contacts for electrical connection thereto. Outer shielding of the coaxial leads are positioned in grooves of the housing and complementary recesses of the cover part engage in the grooves and tightly clamp the shielding to the housing around substantially the whole circumference for effective shielding.
