Coaxial connector in a housing block

Claim 1

A connector comprising; coaxial connector means comprising, at least one center contact, a corresponding dielectric body encircling concentrically each said center contact and a conductive and unitary first shell encircling each corresponding dielectric body, each said first shell have an axially extending seam and at least one projecting terminal adjacent to the seam for insertion into a corresponding aperture of a circuit board, wherein the improvement comprises; a housing block mounted within a conductive second shell comprising, a front end with a D-shaped interface, a mounting flange with a first portion extending transverse to said front end, and with a base intersecting the first portion for mounting on a circuit board, each said first shell is adapted for insertion into and along a corresponding first cavity of the housing block, wherein a flange of each said first shell is provided along each side of the seam and projects outward radially from a corresponding said first shell for alignment into and along the same recess extending in the housing block transversely of the corresponding first cavity, each corresponding terminal extends from a corresponding flange through the recess and outwardly of the housing block, additional cavities extend from the front end of the housing block, and conductive electrical contacts in corresponding additional cavities have corresponding electrical terminals extending from the housing block for connection in corresponding additional apertures of a circuit board.
