ABSTRACT:
Triaxial connector adapters for connecting triaxial cables. Triaxial connector adapters provided in accordance with the present invention allow connection of triaxial cables having different bend radii, thereby ensuring that monitoring instruments in, for example, the nuclear power industry, can be sealed in accordance with federal regulations. Furthermore, triaxial connector adapters disclosed herein provide quick, efficient and safe retrofitting of existing monitoring instruments which use standard large bend radius triaxial cables. The triaxial connector adapters comprises triaxial housings for providing an outer shield conductor for the triaxial connector adapter and interfacing to a first triaxial cable, inner shields interfaced with the triaxial housings for providing an inner conductor for the triaxial connector adapter and carrying electric current through the triaxial connector adapter, center conductors interfaced with the inner shields for carrying electric current through the triaxial connector adapter, and connectors interfaced with the triaxial housings for connecting a second triaxial cable to the triaxial connector adapters and electrically interfacing the first triaxial cable with the second triaxial cable.
