Abstract:
1. A coaxial connector mounting flange structure, adapted to be mounted upon a radio frequency system subassembly so as to electrically connect a coaxial electrical connector to a hermetically sealed field replaceable pin which is mounted upon the radio frequency system subassembly and which is electrically connected to circuit components of the radio frequency system subassembly, comprising: a central body portion; a coaxial electrical connector mounted upon said central body portion; a pair of oppositely disposed end portions extending laterally outwardly from said central body portion in opposite directions; aperture means respectively defined within each one of said pair of oppositely disposed end portions for permitting a fastener to pass through said aperture means in order to fixedly mount said coaxial connector mounting flange structure upon the radio frequency system subassembly; and means defined upon each one of said pair of oppositely disposed end portions for permitting adjacent ones of said oppositely disposed end portions, disposed upon a pair of adjacent coaxial connector mounting flange structures, to be overlapped with respect to each other, when a plurality of said coaxial connector mounting flange structures are disposed within a linear array, such that a single fastener can be inserted through both of said aperture means defined within said overlapped oppositely disposed end portions of said pair of adjacent coaxial connector mounting flange structures whereby the longitudinal extent of the linear array of said coaxial connector mounting flange structures can be minimized so as to, in turn, minimize the longitudinal extent of the radio frequency system subassembly.
