1. An RF plug-in connector comprising:
- a male head formed to receive an end of a coaxial cable having a center conductor and a dielectric, which is so arranged as to fit with said coaxial connector so that said center conductor of said coaxial cable forms said connector'"'"'s center conductor, and said dielectric of said coaxial cable forms at least a portion of said connector'"'"'s dielectric;
a sliding sleeve mounted on said male head, rotatable and axially displaceable therewith, and fitting over a collet, wherein said sliding sleeve includes an internal shoulder which, in a coupled position, engages in a recess in the circumferential surface of said male head, said sliding sleeve being slotted axially in the region of said shoulder;
said collet radially elastic and non-displaceably mounted on said male head in such a way as to allow rotation, and in such a way that in a coupled state, said sliding sleeve radially compresses said collet, said collet including an inserting end for insertion with a complementary coupler, said inserting end including an inside thread having a pitch that provides for a connection with an outside thread on said complementary coupler.

Abstract
An RF plug connector having a plug head on which a sliding sleeve is seated which can be rotated, can be moved axially and clasps a radially elastic collet (4) in such a manner that the sliding sleeve compresses the collet radially in the coupled state, the design can be considerably simplified in comparison to that of known plug connectors of this generic type, to be precise by the collet (4) being arranged such that it cannot be moved axially on the plug head. For connection to a coupler with an external thread, the collet (4) has internal profiling on the plug side, in particular an internal thread with a pitch which is not the same as that of the external thread of the coupler.
