Abstract
A preferred embodiment of a plug connector for connecting a waveguide to at least one electric conductor may have a housing for connecting to the waveguide. Fastening means may be provided to attach the housing to a structure having the at least one electric conductor. The housing may accommodate a signal converter having an antenna arrangement. A waveguiding arrangement may be provided within the housing. The waveguiding arrangement may guide an electromagnetic wave into the waveguide and may be paired with the antenna arrangement. The signal converter may be connected to at least one electric conductor and may perform conversion between electric signals and high-frequency electromagnetic signals.
