Patent ID: 7449899

Claim:
A probe comprising: (a) a coaxial cable including an axially extending first conductor, a coaxial second conductor and a dielectric, said coaxial cable terminating in a terminal section oblique to a longitudinal axis of said coaxial cable; (b) a dielectric substrate affixed to said coaxial cable with a first side proximate said terminal section and a second side remote from said terminal section; (c) a first conductive member conductively connecting said first conductor to a first contact located on said second side of said dielectric substrate, nearer a periphery of said terminal section than a center of said terminal section and substantially within said periphery of said terminal section, said first contact engageable with a device to be tested; and (d) a second conductive member conductively connecting said second conductor to a second contact located on said second side of said dielectric substrate, nearer said periphery of said terminal section than said center of said terminal section and substantially within said periphery of said terminal section.
