Abstract
A connector for connecting a coaxial cable to radio frequency (RF) equipment in which an inner contact is positioned inside a channel within a conductive metal body and an electrically insulating material is injected into the channel, thereby providing insulation between the contact and the metal body and retaining the contact in position within the body. Connecting a coaxial cable to RF equipment is simplified and soldering of the inner contact is avoided.
