ABSTRACT:
A shielded connector assembly is provided for a coaxial cable which includes a center conductor with an insulating layer thereabout, a conductive shield and an outer insulating covering. A non-conductive body is provided for receiving an end of the coaxial cable with the conductive shield exposed. The body has a conductive contact thereon for engaging the center conductor of the cable. A conductive outer casing is positioned about at least a portion of the body for shielding the cable end and having a portion for engaging the outside of the conductive shield of the cable. A rigid sheath is positioned between the insulating layer and the conductive shield of the cable to provide backing support for the shield on the inside thereof. The portion of the conductive outer casing which engages the outside of the conductive shield of the cable projects through a slit in the body. Preferably, the body includes a single lower body part and a pair of upper body parts. The conductive outer casing includes a single lower casing half and an upper casing half defined by two casing parts. The connector assembly thereby can interconnect the ends of two coaxial cables and facilitate some assembly being performed in a production environment and the remaining assembly being performed in the field.
