Abstract:
An electrical connector for high frequencies, the connector comprising:two elements (100, 200; 1000) adapted to be engaged by moving in translation, each element (100, 200; 1000) comprising a body (110, 210; 1100-1170) of electrically insulating material provided with electromagnetic shielding (130, 230; 1300) and carrying a plurality of electrical contacts (120-127; 220-227; 1200-1270), whereinthe shielding (130, 230; 1300) of each element comprises a cage-forming portion (132, 232; 1310, 1330) provided with an internal crosspiece (135, 235) defining cells each housing a pair of contacts (120-127; 220-227; 1200-1270), and whereinthe shielding crosspiece (135, 235) define a single electromagnetic join plane that is perpendicular to the axis of the connector.
