Abstract
An electrical connector for an electrical cable with a plurality of conductors comprises a plurality of subassemblies that may be easily assembled and automatically aligned by plural captivation means provided on the subassemblies. Such a connector for a triaxial connector comprises a center contact subassembly to provide connection for the center conductor of the connector, an inner shell subassembly to provide connection for a first outer conductor of the cable, an outer shell subassembly to provide connection for a second outer conductor of the cable, and first and second captivation means for axially positioning the center contact subassembly, the inner shell subassembly and the outer shell subassembly with respect to one another during assembly of the connector to the cable. The connector further includes first and second ferrules for crimping the first and second outer conductors to the inner and outer shells, respectively, and ferrule positioning means on the second ferrule to hold the ferrule in axial position with respect to the outer shell during crimping.
