A vehicular adaptor for a portable communications device, such as a cellular telephone, pager, or two-way radio, is disclosed which includes a connector that aligns itself to a mating connector on the communication device. The connector permits spatial alignment of electrical contacts in the connector with electrical contacts in the communications device. A corrugated spring mounting clamp and a locating nest on the connector permit the alignment of connections.

Portable communications device adaptor

A contact assembly is provided for interconnecting a circuit board and a coaxial connector. A formed metal element provides a strip of electrically conductive material which is connected to and supported by the circuit board. A center contact arm extends from the strip to engage the coaxial connector. A second formed metal element includes a ground plane which is supported by the circuit board in spaced relation to the strip. A ground contact arm extends from the ground plane to engage the coaxial connector. A dielectric member is positioned between the strip and the ground plane.
