Abstract
An electrical connector member for a coaxial cable. The connector member comprises a first section and a second section. The first section has two or more portals therein, each portal adapted to guide an indentor of a crimping tool into a predetermined position over a crimp area of an electrical contact in the member. The second section includes a conductor receiving section of the electrical contact, the conductor receiving section having a diameter adapted to receive a center conductor of the cable. Each crimp area is located on the conductor receiving section, wherein an electrical connection is formed by crimping the electrical contact to the conductor at each crimp area using the indentors. The crimped connection provides a substantially matched impedance in that section of the connector.
