An L-type coaxial connector is connected to a coaxial cable including a central conductor and an external conductor, and includes a housing, a bushing, and a socket. The housing includes a housing main body, a back-side section, and a crimp section. The housing main body has a first cut section. The back-side section includes a lid section and an extending section extending from the lid section and above which the external conductor is placed. The crimp section extends from the extending section, and its leading end section is bent so as to be opposed to the extending section such that the coaxial cable is interposed therebetween. The extending section has a second cut section, and a joining member joining the external conductor and the extending section is present inside the second cut section.

An electrical plug includes a plug housing having a first housing exterior part and a second housing exterior part separate from the first housing exterior part, a protective conductor contact disposed in the plug housing, and a protective conductor connector element disposed in the plug housing. The first housing exterior part and the second housing exterior part are each at least partially made of metal. The protective conductor connector element is connected to the protective conductor contact and is electrically connected to at least one of the first housing exterior part and the second housing exterior part.

An apparatus includes a shaft, a slide lock, and a pin. The shaft includes a first end, a second end opposite the first end and a middle portion between the first end and the second end. The first end includes an enclosure. The middle portion includes a tapered hole. The tapered hole is tapered in a direction from the first end to the second end. The slide lock is disposed over the shaft. The pin is disposed through the tapered hole and coupled to the slide lock. The movement of the slide lock is coupled to movement of the pin within the tapered hole of the shaft. The position of the pin within the tapered hole corresponds to an amount of opening of the enclosure.

A connector secured to a coaxial cable having a conducting core. The connector includes a housing having a body having a central vertical axis and defining a chamber extending along the central vertical axis, a dielectric disposed in the chamber of the housing; and a signal contact disposed in the chamber of the housing and held by the dielectric. The signal contact includes a head having a top face and an opposite bottom face, a ferrule member projecting away from the top face of the head, and a pin projecting away from the bottom face of the head. The ferrule member includes a passage extending in a direction transverse to the central vertical axis, and the passage receives a terminating portion of the conducting core. The ferrule member is crimped to the terminating portion of the conducting core.

An ultra-high frequency super thin coaxial RF connector assembly comprising a combination of an ultra-high frequency super thin coaxial RF board side connector and an ultra-high frequency super thin coaxial RF wire side connector, wherein the arrangement of a traditionally conventional board side connector center terminal is omitted for the ultra-high frequency super thin coaxial RF board side connector, for the ultra-high frequency super thin coaxial RF wire side connector to transfer an RF signal to a circuit board directly without using an RF board side center terminal. As such, there is no need to arrange a board side center terminal in the Ultra high frequency super thin coaxial RF board side connector, so that a board side shield terminal in the Ultra high frequency super thin coaxial RF board side connector may provide an electrical shield more effectively, allowing the ultra-high frequency super thin coaxial RF connector assembly of the present invention to be capable of providing an RF signal in an UHF (Ultra High Frequency) millimeter wave band above 30 GHz for transmission.

A method and apparatus is presented for strain relief for mil-spec RF cabling connectors. When the RF signals are carried on the cables, they are either attached to connectors to increase their lengths or they get attached to hardware assembly that receives and transmits RF signals. At connections, strain relief is provided so that any movement of the cables does not convey stress and strain to the points where cable joins the connector or its mate. A concise, space restricted strain relief solution is provided by use of clamp, cover or shrink tubing to transfer cables in all four directions. The concentric cables line up in small dimensions and are replaceable individually as opposed to discard of entire mesh of cables on single cable failure.

L-shaped coaxial terminals, shielding members shielding these coaxial terminals, and a housing with insulating material having L-shaped terminal holding portions that hold the coaxial terminals and shielding members; the external terminal of the coaxial terminals has a conductor mounting portion extending in a forward-rearward direction and a terminal connecting portion extending downwardly from the front end side of the conductor mounting portion; the shielding members cover a section in the external terminal extending from the bottom face of the front end portion of the conductor mounting portion to the rear face of the upper end portion of the terminal connecting portion, electrically connecting the conductor mounting portion to the terminal connecting portion, forming an electrical path in the external terminal that passes through an area extending from below the front end portion of the conductor mounting portion to the rear of the upper end portion of the terminal connecting portion.

A coaxial connector assembly includes a housing holding an outer contact and a dielectric holder received in the outer contact. The dielectric holder has a mating segment having a front cavity and a cable segment having a cable cavity receiving a cable assembly. The cable assembly has a pin contact. A center contact is received in the front cavity of the dielectric holder. The center contact has a base positioned in the dielectric holder generally at an intersection of the front cavity and the cable cavity. The center contact has deflectable pin beams extending from the base. The pin beams have flared lead-in tips at distal ends of the beams. The base and the pin beams are axially aligned with the cable axis to receive the pin contact.

A connector assembly includes a housing. The housing defines a cavity configured to receive a coaxial electrical terminal. The housing has a first end an a second end opposite the first end. The housing also has a first side and a second side opposite the first side. The first side and second side have opposed locking ribs. The coaxial electrical terminal has a wire end and a terminal end oriented orthogonal to the wire end. When the housing engages a corresponding mounting bracket, locking arms extending from the corresponding mounting bracket impart a retention force on the opposed locking ribs and inhibit a rotation of the housing about a mating axis of the coaxial electrical terminal.

L-shaped coaxial terminals, shielding members shielding these coaxial terminals, and a housing with insulating material having L-shaped terminal holding portions that hold the coaxial terminals and shielding members; the external terminal of the coaxial terminals has a conductor mounting portion extending in a forward-rearward direction and a terminal connecting portion extending downwardly from the front end side of the conductor mounting portion; the shielding members cover a section in the external terminal extending from the bottom face of the front end portion of the conductor mounting portion to the rear face of the upper end portion of the terminal connecting portion, electrically connecting the conductor mounting portion to the terminal connecting portion, forming an electrical path in the external terminal that passes through an area extending from below the front end portion of the conductor mounting portion to the rear of the upper end portion of the terminal connecting portion.
