A sleeve (11) is a hollow cylindrical member provided in a shield terminal (10), and pressable by a wire barrel (18) by being arranged between an insulating portion (63) and a shield portion (62) of a shielded cable (60). A convex portion (36) shaped to bulge radially outward over an entire circumference is provided at an intermediate position of the sleeve (11) in an axial direction. The convex portion (36) is crushed and elongated by the wire barrel (18) of an outer conductor terminal (13). The insulating portion (63) can be prevented from being excessively compressed.

A connector for a coaxial cable includes a coupler configured to engage another coaxial cable connector, a body configured to be disposed at least partially within the coupler, and an outer conductor engager made of a conductive material disposed within the body and the coupler. An interior of the body includes a biasing element, and a compression sleeve is disposed at an opposite axial side of the outer conductor engager relative to the biasing element. The compression sleeve, the outer conductor engager, and the body are configured such that opposite axial forces applied to the compression sleeve and the outer conductor engager cause the outer conductor engager to move axially relative to one another and to cause the outer conductor engager to move axially relative to the body when the connector is coupled to the coaxial cable. The outer conductor engager is configured to be compressed by the biasing member when the outer conductor engager portion moves relative to the body such that an interior surface of the outer conductor engager portion is compressed radially inward against an outer conductor of the coaxial cable.

A shield connector is provided with a housing including a module accommodation chamber and a terminal module to be inserted into the module accommodation chamber from behind the housing. The terminal module is formed such that an inner conductor is surrounded by a dielectric and the dielectric is surrounded by an outer conductor. The outer conductor includes a projecting portion projecting from a position rearward of a front end of the outer conductor on an outer surface of the outer conductor. An inner wall surface constituting the module accommodation chamber has a facing inner surface facing the outer surface formed with the projecting portion. The facing inner surface is formed with a projection-like backlash eliminating portion. The projecting portion is arranged behind the backlash eliminating portion with the terminal module inserted in the module accommodation chamber.

The invention relates to a plug-in connector, substantially consisting of an insulating body and at least one contact element which is mounted directly in the insulating body, wherein the insulating body directly forms the plug-in connector housing of the plug-in connector. The plug-in connector is of particularly simple construction and can therefore be manufactured quickly. In addition, the plug-in connector is of very robust design and suitable for industrial use, in particular in harsh environments.

The present disclosure describes a coaxial cable-connector assembly. The coaxial cable-connector assembly including a coaxial cable, a coaxial connector, and a polymeric sleeve. The outer connector body is swaged or crimped onto the polymeric sleeve. An end of a corrugated outer conductor of the coaxial cable is flared radially outwardly to form a flared end that secures the polymeric sleeve onto the coaxial cable. The polymeric sleeve separates the corrugated outer conductor of the coaxial cable from the outer conductor body of the coaxial connector to prevent direct radial electrical connection therebetween and the polymeric sleeve axially forces the flared end of the outer conductor of the coaxial cable in contact with a shoulder of the outer connector body of the coaxial connector. Additional coaxial cable-connector assemblies and related methods of assembling the same are described herein.

The outer layer is peeled exactly a predetermined length from the end portion of the electromagnetic shielding tube. That is, the metal layer is exposed exactly a predetermined range at the end portion of the electromagnetic shielding tube. A flexible conductor is connected to the exposed metal layer. A separated portion is provided in the inner layer. The separated portion is formed along the length direction of the electromagnetic shielding tube. Additionally, a depth of the separated portion is the same value as the thickness of the inner layer. As such, the inner surface of the metal layer is exposed at the separated portion. It is preferable that the separated portion be formed at a plurality of locations in the circumferential direction. The inner layer is divided into a plurality of sections in the circumferential direction by the separated portion. The separated portion is a terminal processed portion, which mitigates the effects caused by differences in the physical properties of the inner layer and the metal layer.

A connection method of an RF cable end connector and a coaxial cable and an internal terminal used thereof are provided. An insulator is formed outside a body of the internal terminal by embedded molding, making the internal terminal have a composite structure integrated with the insulator. The internal terminal can be connected to the coaxial cable by, for example, clamping. This allows connection between the RF cable end connector and the coaxial cable to be easily accomplished by automatic processes, thereby reducing fabrication costs of RF cable end connector jumpers.

A plug connector arrangement having a plug connector and a cable connected thereto, at least one inner conductor and an outer conductor surrounding the inner conductor, wherein the outer conductor of the cable is electrically connected to an outer conductor housing of the plug connector. The plug connector arrangement additionally has a sleeve part which surrounds the inner conductor, has approximately the same inner diameter (D) as the outer conductor (34) of the cable, adjoins a front axial end (A) of the outer conductor, and continues a shielding of the inner conductor in the direction of the front cable end.

A plug arrangement having a plug and a cable that is connected thereto and includes at least one inner conductor and an outer conductor surrounding the inner conductor(s); an axial terminal section of the outer conductor is electrically connected to a sleeve portion of an outer conductor housing of the plug, said sleeve portion surrounding the outer conductor; a crimp point comprising a radial constriction of the sleeve portion is located between the axial terminal section of the outer conductor and the axial end of the inner conductor in the longitudinal direction (L) of the cable.

A tool for mounting a coaxial cable on a first connector is disclosed, wherein the coaxial cable extending along a first axial is adapted to pass through a first outer sleeve of the first connector, wherein the tool comprises a plunger; and a mold comprising an upper mold hinge and a lower mold hinge, wherein the upper mold hinge pivotally connected to the lower mold hinge so as to rotate the upper mold hinge relative to the lower mold hinge with respect to a rotation axis, and a second axial direction of the rotation axis is parallel to the first axial direction, wherein the plunger is adapted to push the first connector so as to force the upper mold hinge and the lower mold hinge to press the first outer sleeve so as to deform the first outer sleeve radially.
