Abstract
In order to produce a plug-type connection between two circuit boards that are arranged parallel to one another, the invention proposes a coaxially designed connector that is simultaneously realized in the form of a hermaphroditic contact. This means that only one surface-mountable connector element is required which can be mated with a second connector element of identical design. The two collar-shaped connector elements () to be mated can be inserted into one another by means of notches () that are provided in the collar () for this purpose. The connector element () to be manufactured by means of injection moulding and the MID-technique preferably features a square, collar-shaped base body () with an electrically conductive coating and a separate electric signaling contact () that is arranged in insulating fashion in a contact holder () within the base body () such that effective shielding is also realized for the transmission of high frequency signals.
