ABSTRACT:
A connector for use in connecting coaxial cables having a center conductor surrounded by an insulator and a shield is provided with a self-terminating mechanism. The self-terminating mechanism includes a terminating element having an impedance equal to the characteristic impedance of the coaxial cable. The terminating element is arranged within the insulator in such a way that when the connector is uncoupled the terminating element connects the center conductor to the shield, and when the connector is coupled the terminating element is forced off connection with the center conductor.
