Abstract:
A connector part having front and rear ends and having a pair of front contacts at said front end and a pair of rear contacts at said rear end, comprising:an electrically conductive housing in the form of a shell that has a primarily cylindrical inside surface and that has an axis that is concentric with said cylindrical inside surface, said shell having a through passage therein, and said shell having front and rear portions, with one of said front contacts formed by said shell; an insulator device lying in said housing; an inner coaxial conductor extending along said axis and lying within said insulator device, with said inner conductor and said shell being accessible from said connector part front end and forming said front contacts to connect thereto in a coaxial connection; said insulator device having upper and lower locations that substantially abut the inside of said shell to fix the location of said insulator device within said connector shell and to hold said inner coaxial conductor so it extends along said axis; a transformer having first and second winding portions, with said first winding portion coupled to said pair of front contacts and with said second winding portion coupled to said pair of rear contacts; said transformer lying within said shell.
