Claim Text:
1. A method for creating a crimp connection between a coaxial cable which possesses, arranged coaxially in relation to one another, an inner conductor, an outer conductor, a dielectric arranged between the outer conductor and inner conductor, and a jacket made of an electrically insulating material surrounding the outer conductor, and a coaxial connector which possesses an outer conductor part, said method comprising: arranging a hollow cylindrical supporting sleeve on the jacket; pulling a predetermined section of the outer conductor, from which the jacket has been stripped, over the supporting sleeve, so that this section of the outer conductor is at least in part arranged radially on the outside of the supporting sleeve; arranging the outer conductor part to at least partially enclose the supporting sleeve with the outer conductor lying on the outside, radially from the outside, wherein a radial force is applied from outside on the outer conductor part over at least a part of the circumference of the outer conductor part, seen in a circumferential direction and an axial direction, such that the outer conductor part is crimped in an annular form onto the supporting sleeve, the crimp connection being substantially circular in cross section; forming a cold weld between the supporting sleeve, the outer conductor part, and the outer conductor; and forming at least one accumulation of material due to the displaced material, said at least one accumulation of material rising radially outwards on the outer conductor part at a height of a closing gap of a crimping tool.
