ABSTRACT:
A system of interconnection of a set of coaxial cables to a device, such as a testing apparatus for an integrated circuit chip, includes an apertured plate of electrically conducting material which positions each of the connectors in registration with corresponding terminals of the device. Each connector includes a spring-loaded probe insulated from a housing of the connector and making connection between an inner conductor of a coaxial cable and the corresponding terminal of the device. Also included are signal-return spring-loaded probes mounted in the plate and electrically connected thereby to the other conductors of the coaxial cables to provide signal-return paths with corresponding terminals of the device. In alternative embodiments, a simpler connection is fashioned by use of a single connector and a single signal-return probe extending from a shoulder of the housing of the connector. Also, a pair of cables can be joined by use of a cylindrical sleeve enveloping a pair of opposed connectors and making electrical contact with the housings thereof.
