Abstract
A low profile coaxial connector for at least three stacked boards (12, 14, 16) has a first part (20) with signal (22) and ground/shield (24) contacts to be secured on a first board (12). A second mating part (40) includes a signal contact (42) to be secured on an outermost (16) of the remaining circuit boards and a ground/shield contact (50) to be secured on an intermediate circuit board (14). The connector is especially useful when the intermediate circuit board constitutes a ground plane for shielding the first board, such as an electronics board, from the outermost circuit board, such as an antenna.
