The invention relates to a connector for RF lines for contacting the outer conductor () of the RF line () by means of an insulation displacement connector having at least one pair of opposite cutting edges (), with the cutting edges () being arranged opposite each other in staggered manner in the longitudinal axial direction of the outer conductor ().

RF connector with cutting edges

A RF coaxial angle-connector part embodied as a coaxial connector-part module having coaxial connector parts disposed at the front in a housing. The metallized-plastic housing has, on a bottom at an edge, a multiplicity of contact bearing feet with bearing surfaces which constitute SMD connections. The contact bearing feet are used both for mounting the housing on a base as well as for conductively connecting the SMD connections to connections that are allocated to the latter on the base. The conductive connections between coaxial inner conductors of the coaxial connector parts and the SMD connections includes insulated metallic inner-conductor connection pieces that have in each case two sections which are disposed essentially perpendicular to one another. The two sections include an inner-conductor plug part and an SMD inner-conductor foot. The inner-conductor plug parts are oriented in each case perpendicular to the coaxial connector parts, and have, at their free end, a press-fit contact head for a highly conductive connection to associated coaxial inner conductors of the coaxial connector parts.

RF coaxial angle-connector part and method for its production

An HF coaxial plug connector includes coaxial plugs disposed in a multiple plug housing-coaxial plug module, and coaxial sockets disposed in a multiple socket housing-coaxial socket module for use in circuits, especially in printed circuit board technology. Coaxial outer conductors of the coaxial socket module are at least partly integrated with its housing in the form of sheaths which act as coaxial outer conductors and extend in the housing toward its insertion side for the coaxial plug module. Insulating plastic sheaths which are inserted into these thus-created coaxial outer conductors, receive coaxial inner conductors therein.

HF coaxial connector having a plug module and a socket module

An RF coaxial plug connector part includes coaxial plug parts disposed at a front of a housing of a coaxial plug part module mounted on or attached to a board, for example a printed circuit board. The housing has a grid-type frame which defines its external dimensions, is open on all sides, has frame parts that are disposed at right angles to one another, and is made of a first plastic, which cannot be metallized. Free spaces in the grid-type frame are completely filled with cable inserts which are DC-isolated from one another by the frame parts and are made of a second plastic, which can be metallized. At least one coaxial connecting cable, which extends from the front surface to the lower surface of the housing is integrated in each of the cable inserts.

RF coaxial plug connector part

A connector for connection to a printed circuit board comprising a connector body and at least one conductor pin extending from the connector body. The conductor pin has a nail shaped region engaging a bore of the connector body and a press-in zone for engaging walls of a bore disposed in the printed circuit board to establish a solderless electrical and mechanical connection between the connector body and the printed circuit board.

Connector for solderless attachment to a printed circuit board

Arresting mechanism for coaxial plug connectors. Balls which sit in radial borings of a protective sleeve are kept in a lock-in position by a circularly bent spring that is locked in an outside surrounding flat groove of the protective sleeve. Only on one end is the slotted band spring secured against rotation in the flat groove by indentations provided in the border of the groove.
