An object of the present invention is to realize a loop through circuit, in an active connector, securely having a preferable mismatching attenuation characteristic and having a preferable signal transmission characteristic, with respect to an input port, an output port, and an internal port, without providing a special circuit outside the connector. A connector base part has the input port inputting an external signal, the output port outputting a loop through signal, and the internal port outputting a signal into a device. First and second matching circuits, an equalizer circuit, a dividing circuit, and a driving circuit are stored in the connector base part. The matching circuit is supplied with an external signal input from the input port. The dividing circuit divides a signal to be input to generate first and second divided signals, and outputs them to the internal port and the output port. The equalizer circuit compensates for a frequency characteristic and/or loss of a signal to be input. The driving circuit is provided between the dividing circuit and the matching circuit, and drives a transmission line to be coupled to the output port.

Coaxial connector junctions include a first coaxial connector that has a first center conductor extension and a first outer conductor extension and a second coaxial connector that is mated with the first coaxial connector, the second coaxial connector including a second center conductor extension and a second outer conductor extension. A communications path between the first outer conductor extension and the second outer conductor extension includes a first capacitively coupled outer conductor communications path and a second galvanically coupled outer conductor communications path.

A coaxial radio frequency (RF) isolator is disclosed. The isolator includes a first connector that conducts an RF signal received from a first device connected to the isolator. The isolator also includes a conductive body including a second connector and a conductive outer shield that form a first internal cavity. The isolator further includes a dielectric sleeve between the outer shield and the conductive body. In addition, the isolator includes a conductive coupling/filtering member inside the outer shield and the dielectric sleeve. The conductive coupling/filtering member has a cylindrical shape forming a second internal cavity. Moreover, the isolator includes a thru-RF signal transmission path through the first internal cavity and the second internal cavity. The thru-RF signal transmission path receives the RF signal from the first device, conditions the RF signal, and outputs the RF signal to a second device. Further, the isolator includes a coaxial coupling element in the first internal cavity and has a cylindrical shape. The coaxial coupling element connects the conductive body, the conductive filtering/coupling member, and the conductive outer shield. Additionally, the isolator includes a magnetic toroid in the first cavity that surrounds the conductive coupling/filtering member.

A coaxial cable-connector assembly includes a coaxial cable and a coaxial cable connector. The coaxial cable includes: a central conductor having a connector end; a dielectric layer that overlies the central conductor; and an outer conductor that overlies the dielectric layer having a connector end. The coaxial connector includes: a central conductor extension configured to mate with a mating connector at one end; a first insulative layer interposed between an opposed second end of the central conductor extension and the connector end of the central conductor; an outer conductor extension configured to mate with a mating connector at one end; and a second insulative layer interposed between an opposed second end of the outer conductor extension and the connector end of the outer conductor. This configuration can reduce and/or avoid PIM within the connection of two coaxial connectors.

A male termination arrangement may include a body portion, a resistor portion structurally configured to be positioned within the body portion, and a floating portion structurally configured to be positioned within the body portion. The floating portion may be structurally configured to contact a biasing portion, the resistor portion may be structurally configured to connect to the floating portion, and the floating portion may be structurally configured to move within a floating cavity portion in response to external force to eliminate noise introduced to the resistor portion so as to mitigate noise introduced to a network to which the termination arrangement is connected.
