Abstract

An electrical connector for terminating flexible coaxial cable is provided. The flexible coaxial cable includes an inner conductor, an intermediate dielectric, an outer flexible braided intermediate dielectric and an outer insulator. A bored interface body has a first end with a first bore of relatively large inner diameter and a second end with a second bore of relatively smaller inner diameter than the first bore. A coupling member is located proximate to the interface body. An annular locking member having an inner diameter sized to receive the coaxial cable therein and an outer diameter sized to fit tightly within the first bore of the interface body. The locking member is bonded to the coaxial cable, which, in construction, is pre-conditioned to accept a bonding agent such as an epoxy resin.
