Abstract
A coaxial cable end connector includes two hollow and coaxial inner and outer sleeves. The outer sleeve is provided with at least one transverse slot for receiving a clamping structure therein. The clamping structure is formed at a bottom surface with a plurality of teeth. When a coaxial cable is inserted into the end connector, the jacket and the braided conducting sheath of the cable are located in an annular space between the inner and the outer sleeve. By forcing the clamping structure toward a center of the outer sleeve, the teeth at the bottom surface of the clamping structure are brought to tightly press against and connect to the jacket of the coaxial cable.
