Abstract

An electronic interconnect adapter for a bulkhead mounted high speed coaxial interconnect has a rotatable coupling bushing with a central bore. One side of the bushing has an axially extending flange disposed around the bore with the flange having a threaded interior surface that threadably mates with a threaded exterior surface of the female side of the coaxial interconnect. The opposite side of the bushing has an axially disposed cavity with a diameter greater than the central bore forming a shoulder within the cavity. A male side of the interconnect has a flange radially extending from a shield contact with a mating member extending through bore. A radial slot is formed in the cavity adjacent to the shoulder that receives a retaining member that captures the flange between the shoulder and the retaining member to secure the male side of the high speed coaxial interconnect to the coupling bushing.
