Patent ID: 8323055

Claim:
A cable assembly comprising: a coaxial cable having inner and outer conductors and an insulation layer between the conductors; and a plug-in connector having first and second tubular components, wherein one of the tubular components has a groove that extends around at least part of the circumference of the one of the tubular components and projects radially inwardly, wherein the other one of the tubular components has a bead that projects radially inwards; wherein the first tubular component is inserted between the insulation layer and the outer conductor at a free end section of the coaxial cable and the second tubular component is connected to the first tubular component and encloses the outer conductor whereby the plug-in connector is connected to the coaxial cable; wherein the second tubular component forms a sleeve that opens toward the free end section of the coaxial cable; wherein the bead of the other one of the tubular components radially extends into and is latched with the groove of the one of the tubular components such that the tubular components are connected together via the latching of the bead with the groove; wherein the tubular components are connected together and sandwich the outer conductor up to where the sleeve of the second tubular component begins to form with the outer conductor being sandwiched between the groove of the one of the tubular components and the bead of the other one of the tubular components.
