A coaxial connector includes a center conductor and an outer conductor coaxial with the center conductor. The outer conductor has a cylindrical shape with slits forming a plurality of spring loaded contact elements. The connector further has a base for mounting the coaxial connector and an outer housing. To improve passive intermodulation characteristics, the base, the slotted outer conductor and the outer housing are monolithically made in one piece.

An RF-connector system includes an RF-connector with PCB interface, which contains a housing, a coaxial RF-connector interface, and a PCB contact section together with the PCB. A mechanical connection is made by two wing-shaped surface mount sections of the housing having a plurality of surface mount studs adapted to match with pads on the PCB. The electrical connection to the PCB is made by an inner conductor and at least one matching block electrically connected to the housing and providing a matched impedance at the PCB, which has a strip line with a ground plane.
