Abstract

A multi-position coaxial cable connector comprises a conductive housing and cover part mountable together for clamping coaxial leads therebetween. The conductive housing is provided with integrally moulded shrouds surrounding receptacle and pin contacts respectively. The contacts are mounted to a dielectric housing positioned in a recess of the housing and have a central bore with spring contacts therein. The central conductor of the leads can be inserted into the spring contacts for electrical connection thereto. Outer shielding of the coaxial leads are positioned in grooves of the housing and complementary recesses of the cover part engage in the grooves and tightly clamp the shielding to the housing around substantially the whole circumference for effective shielding.
