Abstract
An RF contact (2) provides multiple RF paths (51-53) with minimal RF path lengths between a first (8) and second (36) interconnecting surfaces. A stationary member (6) is soldered on the first surface (8). A main spring member (22) is resiliently (26) connected to the stationary member (6) on a springing end (27) to provide contact travel (38) which ensures wiping action with the second surface (36). A secondary spring member (28) having at least two wiping portions (42 and 46) is resiliently (29) connected to the displacement member on its other end (38) to engage the stationary member (6) and the main spring member (22) along the at least two wiping portions (42 and 46) when the main spring member (22) is resiliently biased against the secondary spring member (28) and the stationary member (6).
