Abstract:
A coaxial connector for connecting two end portions of two coaxial cables having a central conductor, an inner insulator surrounding the central conductor, an outer conductor surrounding the inner insulator and an outer insulator skin surrounding the outer conductor, the coaxial connector comprising:a plug;a jack;a central conductor connecting means disposed in each of said plug and jack for directly conductively contacting front ends of the central conductors of each of the two coaxial cables disposed in the plug and jack, whose surfaces are exposed and surrounded by the insulator of the coaxial cable;an outer conductor connecting means disposed in each of said plug and jack comprising a tubular member in each of the plug and the jack for maintaining a predetermined distance between the central conductor of each of the two coaxial cables and the jack or plug so as to maintain the same characteristic impedance as that of the coaxial cable and for conductively connecting the outer conductors of each of the two coaxial cables with each other by positioning the tubular members therebetween; anda coupling means for fastening and fixing the plug to the jack.
