A coaxial RF connector system comprises RF connectors with inner and outer conductors providing a galvanic contact. An outer conductor of a first connector has a plurality of longitudinal slits forming a plurality of spring-loaded contact elements which contact a solid outer conductor of a second connector. The first connector has a centering sleeve which is one monolithic part with the outer conductor for centering the solid outer conductor of the second connector. An insulation sleeve is provided between the centering sleeve and the solid outer conductor. This prevents a galvanic contact and improves PIM.

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.
