ABSTRACT:
A coaxial connector is provided with front and rear center contacts slidably engaged with one another and moveable from a first relative position where the front contact engages the rear contact and a second position where the front contact is spaced axially from the rear contact. A spring is disposed between the front and rear contacts and is operative to urge the front contact forwardly and out of engagement with the rear contact. A resistor is disposed in permanent engagement with the rear contact. Unmating of the coaxial connector causes the front contact to move forwardly under the action of the spring and out of engagement with the rear contact. This leaves the rear contact in communication with the resistor which functions to terminate the signal generated to the rear contact.
