Abstract
Abstract For a coaxial angular connector with at least two coaxial contacts for installation on a printed circuit board, with a housing block assembled from two subshells, in the interior of which the neutral wires of the coaxial contacts are taken from a plug connection side to a terminal side on the printed circuit board, it is proposed that two mutually overlapping partitions or shielding walls be provided between the neutral wires for their mutual shielding. Due to the overlapping of the partitions, the joint gap of the two half shells between the neutral wires is constructed as a labyrinth impermeable to high frequency radiation.
