Abstract
A contact device for a cable comprising one or more inner conductors with inner insulating sheath and a common shield with outer insulating sheath, comprises a connection terminal for the shield and a connection element for each inner conductor. Further a guiding element and a stop element are provided for each inner conductor. The guiding element directs the corresponding inner conductor with its insulating sheath at the corresponding stop element in such a manner that during insertion of the cable into the contact device the inner insulating sheath is axially compressed by the stop element by the stop element. Seen from the corresponding guiding element each connection terminal for an inner conductor lies beyond the corresponding stop element. By application of this contact device it is no longer necessary to remove the inner insulating sheath.
