ABSTRACT:
A coaxial connector mountable on an end of a coaxial cable having a central conductor (cc) and an exterior conductor (ce), the connector comprising a first conductive contact element (2; 27; 38; 40) for contacting the central conductor (cc), a second conductive contact element (4; 21; 302; 411) for contacting the exterior conductor (ce) electrically isolated from the first contact element, a clamping member (5; 22; 42) opposing the second contact element for clamping the exterior conductor against the second contact element and a force applying member (6; 23; 441) for forcing the clamping member and the second contact element towards each other, wherein the second contact element and/or the clamping member comprise at least one deforming member (502; 222–223; 423–424) for deforming the exterior conductor (ce) under influence of the force applying member, wherein each deforming member (502; 222–223; 423–424) is constructed in a material with a predetermined hardness above that of the material of the exterior conductor and has a predetermined shape for hardening a portion of the exterior conductor to such an extent that it becomes substantially fully elastic.
