Abstract
A connection apparatus for a mobile telephone, includes a plug (2) and a receptacle (1) that each has both beam contacts and coaxial contacts. The plug includes a receiver (10) with a cavity (46) and with a sheath (50) lying within the cavity, and with a gap (22) between them. The receptacle includes a casing (17) that fits into the gap and that receives the sheath of the plug. The plug sheath includes an elongated bridge (9) from which beam contacts (8) project that mate with beam contacts (4) of the receptacle casing. The sheath also includes a coax sheath part (14) that is contiguous with the bridge and that forms a hole (15) that receives a coaxial contact (11) that mates with a coaxial contact (6) in the receptacle casing.
