ABSTRACT:
A male quick disconnect SMA connector is provided which may be easily and readily installed on any existing female SMA connector by simply installing an adapter ring. The male SMA connector includes an inner sub-assembly comprised of an inner housing having a hermetically glass sealed male connector pin extending therefrom. An outer housing is received over the inner sub-assembly and a compressive spring is positioned in a cavity between the inner and outer housings. An insert is provided to the front of the outer housing. The insert includes several recesses for retaining rolling locking pins therein. These locking pins are raised when the outer housing is retracted (thereby compressing the spring) in a first direction. Thereafter, the locking pins are lowered into retaining openings in an adapter ring on the female SMA by releasing the outer housing to its original orientation with respect to the inner housing.
