Abstract
An electrical coaxial jack connector adapted for electrical interconnection with a mating plug-type coaxial connector. The coaxial jack connector has an integral molded plastic body from which external connecting wires project to form a unitary cable connector. The jack-connector body is subdivided into three body sections, namely, a contact-housing section, a grip section, and a wire strain-relief section. A contact mounting board divides the contact-housing section from the grip section. A coaxial male-pin contact and a peripheral leaf-spring contact project from a front surface of the mounting board into an access cavity defined by a cylindrical wall which forms the contact-housing body section. This cylindrical wall is formed with an internal recess or groove which is located adjacent to and in alignment with the leaf-spring contact. This recess serves as a receptacle, at least in part, for the leaf-spring contact in response to leaf-spring deflecting movements caused by the mating insertion of a plug coaxial connector into the jack connector-housing body section.
