Abstract

A stress-free transitional RF connector assembly is provided which electrically connects a planar conductor in a planar electric circuit with a cable or component having a conventional RF connector at one end thereof. The assembly includes a connector body one end of which is arranged to mate with the cable or component connector, and the other end of which is formed to accommodate the planar circuit. A conductive pin held in the connector body and extending to a fixed connection which may be made to the planar conductor is provided therebetween with a joint which permits rotation and axial movement relatively between the resulting two pin parts while maintaining electrical contact.
