Abstract

The invention relates to an electric connector with a shield contact. This connector comprises a sleeve with a cavity designed to receive the end of at least one cable provided with a first contact and a shielding ferule, and an outer surface. This connector also comprises a metal shield contact ring having at least one inner elastic tongue extending toward the inside of the cavity to establish an electric contact with the ferule, and at least one outer elastic tongue extending toward the outside of the outer surface to establish an electric contact with the shield of a counter-connector or a housing incorporating a counter-connector having a second contact connected to the first contact, when the connector and the counter-connector are coupled.
