Abstract:
A coaxial cable connector comprising a hollow metal shell, a signal transmission unit mounted inside said hollow metal shell for signal transmission, and an electrically insulative unit mounted within said hollow metal shell around said signal transmission unit, wherein the coaxial cable connector is divided into a first coupling unit and a second coupling unit adapted for receiving an external coaxial cable connector at one end of a coaxial cable; said hollow metal shell comprises a first shell half having a hollow cylindrical wall forming part of said first coupling unit, said first shell half having at least one pair of aligned longitudinal notches bilaterally formed in said cylindrical wall and extending to an outer open end thereof, a printed circuit board being insertable into the at least one pair of longitudinal notches for connecting said first shell half to grounding terminals on the printed circuit board, a hollow cylindrical second shell half being disposed at said second coupling unit and connected to said first shell half; said signal transmission unit comprises a cylindrical signal terminal suspended in said first coupling unit and insulated from said first shell half by said insulator unit and adapted for connecting to a signal terminal on the printed circuit board.
