ABSTRACT:
A multiple contact coaxial shell connector combines coaxial, shielded, and multiple contacts in a single connector which need not have angular orientation before mating. The connector is formed by a post, shell, and connector body. The post is formed as an insulating contact-carrying post having multiple electrical contact bands spaced along the length of the post. The post is surrounded by one or more shells, where each shell is formed as an insulating contact-carrying shell coaxially encircling and spaced from the post, each shell having multiple electrical contact rings spaced along the length of the shell. The shell can also contain a encircling shielding layer. The post and shell are mounted at one end to a connector body, leaving the other end open for access to the multiple contacts by a matching socket. The socket has complementary recesses to mate to the connector post and shell, and has leaf spring contacts to contact the multiple contact rings and bands of the post and shell.
