Connector for coaxially shielded cables

Claim 1

A termination connector for a coaxial cable having a signal conductor and a coaxial metallic sleeve comprising: An outer synthetic resinous shell forming a housing element having an insulative outer surface, having a transversely extending wall at a first longitudinal end thereof, and a continuous side wall defining a cavity; a solid metallic core element having first and second end surfaces and a continuous longitudinal side surface corresponding to the internal configuration of said cavity and positioned therein; said core having first and second longitudinal through bores extending in spaced parallel relation between said first and second ends, said end wall of said shield element having openings therethrough corresponding to said bores; said first longitudinal bore having a female contact fitted therein and electrically communicating therewith; said second bore forming a surface at a first end thereof for the electrical interconnection of an exposed segment of said shield of the coaxial cable whereby said signal conductor of said cable projects into said bore; a second female contact assembly soldered to a free end of said signal conductor and having a free end thereof positioned adjacent to the opposite end of said second bore; and a layer of insulative material surrounding the outer surfaces of said second female contact assembly and said signal conductor, said layer being injected into said second bore and cured in place.
