Abstract

A coaxial connector with a switch comprises an insulative housing (22) having an opening (35), an outer conductor (23) provided outside the insulative housing (22), a fixed terminal (24) having a contact portion (40), and a movable terminal (25) having a fixed portion (42) and a cantilevered flexible portion (44). The flexible portion (44) has at least one cut-off portion (47). When a central conductor (29) of a coaxial plug (26) is plugged into the opening (35), the flexible portion (44) separates from the contact portion (40) to switch a signal circuit.
