Abstract:
A strain relief for a coaxial cable and coaxial connector interconnection is provided as an injection moldable polymer material surrounding the interconnection. The injection moldable material fills a solder pre-form cavity between an outer conductor of the coaxial cable and an inner diameter of a bore of the connector body. Where the outer conductor is corrugated, the polymer material may be provided covering an exposed portion of the corrugations and/or filling portions of a corrugation trough between an outer jacket and the outer diameter of the outer conductor.
Abstract:
A connector with a capacitively coupled connector interface for interconnection with a mating portion with a sidewall. A connector body has an outer conductor coupling surface at an interface end, covered by an outer conductor dielectric spacer. The outer conductor coupling surface is dimensioned to seat, spaced apart from the sidewall by the outer conductor dielectric spacer, when the connector body and the mating portion are in an interlocked position. A releasable retainer may be provided, the releasable retainer dimensioned to secure the connector body and the mating portion in the interlocked position.
Abstract:
A capacitively coupled flat conductor connector is provided with a male connector body and a female connector body. An alignment insert is coupled to the male connector body, the alignment insert dimensioned to support a predefined length of an inner conductor. An alignment receptacle is coupled to the female connector body, the alignment receptacle dimensioned to receive a connector end of the alignment insert to seat an overlapping portion of an inner conductor and an inner conductor trace parallel with one another against opposite sides of a dielectric spacer. An outer conductor dielectric spacer, which may be a ceramic coating, isolates the contacting elements of the outer conductor signal path between the male and female connectors.
Abstract:
A connector with a capacitively coupled connector interface for interconnection with a female portion is provided with an annular groove, with a sidewall, open to an interface end of the female portion. A male portion is provided with a male outer conductor coupling surface at an interface end, covered by an outer conductor dielectric spacer. The male outer conductor coupling surface is dimensioned to seat, spaced apart from the sidewall by the outer conductor dielectric spacer, within the annular groove, when the male portion and the female portion are in an interlocked position, secured by a releasable retainer dimensioned to secure the male portion and the female portion in the interlocked position.

Abstract:
A connector with a capacitively coupled connector interface for interconnection with a female portion is provided with an annular groove, with a sidewall, open to an interface end of the female portion. A male portion is provided with a male outer conductor coupling surface at an interface end, covered by an outer conductor dielectric spacer. The male portion is retained with a range of radial movement, with respect to a longitudinal axis of the male portion, by a bias web of a float plate. The male outer conductor coupling surface is dimensioned to seat, spaced apart from the sidewall by the outer conductor dielectric spacer, within the annular groove, when the male portion and the female portion are in an interlocked position.
