Abstract

A contact device for high-frequency cables including a front member (11) and a rear member (10). The rear member (10) is mounted on the high-frequency cable (1) and the front member (11) is brought in contact with an outer conductor (3) and an inner conductor (5) on the high-frequency cable (1) for transmission of high-frequency signals from the outer and inner conductor (3, 5) to the front member (11). The front member (11) and the rear member (10) are joined to a connector unit (42) in which the front member (11) and the rear member (10) are joined to a connector unit (42) in which the front member (11) is situated in a ready position (P) relative to the rear member (10), the said connector unit (42) can be mounted on the high-frequency cable (1) such that the cable (1) protrudes into the rear member (10). The front member (11) includes a forming and contact section (30) which, when the front member (11) is displaced from its ready position (P) toward its operating position (T), forms an outer collar (9) of the outer conductor (3) of the high-frequency cable (1) such that the outer collar (9) gains contact with the forming and contact section (30). The front member (11) further i…
