Abstract
A tool comprises clamping members spaced from each other on a plate that clampingly engage a coaxial cable. Drill guide members hingedly connected together are latchably secured together onto the plate and they include opposing holes centrally disposed relative to the clamped cable to enable a drill bit to pass therethrough to drill opposed openings through the jacket and shielding and into the dielectric sheathing around the center conductor, whereafter the drill bit and drill guide members are removed. A housing of the coaxial connector containing stationary and movable signal probes is mounted on the plate to position the signal probes relative to the drilled holes whereafter the signal probes are moved into electrical connection with the center conductor and ground conductor members penetrate the jacket and electrically connect with the shielding.
