Abstract
A connector suitable for being mounted on a coaxial cable comprising at least one metal braid layer surrounding inner parts of the cable and an outer insulating layer surrounding said at least one metal braid layer and a silicone sleeve arranged around the outer insulating layer wherein the connector comprises a ferrule to be arranged in electrical contact with said at least one metal braid layer, wherein said outer insulating layer of the cable is arranged to be stripped away for the length of said electrical contact, a base arranged cylindrically around said ferrule, and a collar arranged at least partially within said base and comprising a body configurable around the ferrule; wherein the body of the collar has a first outer diameter substantially the same as the diameter of the outer insulating layer of the coaxial cable; and the silicone sleeve is arranged, upon mounting the coaxial cable to the connector, between the base and the body of the collar for applying a pressure force to said at least one metal braid layer of the coaxial cable guided to an outer surface of the collar.
