ABSTRACT:
An electrical connector, such as a miniature UHF connector, and a method of manufacturing features the provision of a relatively heavy metallic shell (12) containing a dielectric insert (30) holding a signal contact (44) coaxially therewithin and having an opening (22) with a separate insert (52) and grounding element (60) fitted in the said opening to enclose the interior of said shell, the said grounding element including a plurality of fine posts (64) adapted to fit in holes in a circuit board to ground the said connector with the said shell elements fitted together in a ready assembly to provide an enclosure shielding the signal path through the said connector from radiation external to the said shell and shielding the exterior of the said shell from radiation from within the said shell, the method including forming and processing the shell and said grounding element separately with variations in the positioning and size and shape of the said posts to fit the fingerprint of a variety of assemblies.
