ABSTRACT:
An electrical connector having a front end for attachment to a terminal and a back end for attachment to a coaxial cable includes a body, a post mounted within the body; and a contact assembly movably mounted within the post. The contact assembly includes a guide, a pin mounted to the guide, and a clip mounted to the pin for making electrical and mechanical contact with the center conductor of the coaxial cable. The contact assembly moves longitudinally toward the front end of the connector, such that the front end of the pin moves from a first position completely within the body to a second position at least partially protruding from the body, as the connector receives the coaxial cable. The guide has an opening for the center conductor, which is viewable to a user during attachment until the center conductor enters the opening.
