ABSTRACT:
A self-aligning blind mate connector designed for surface mounting to existing RF coaxial pin and outer sheath ring of a sealed RF module. The two halves of the connector provide positive interlock upon engagement and allow for both axial and radial misalignment. Each half includes an inner body member housing the conductors and a body capture member to secure the inner body to the RF module while allowing for mobility of the connectors to accommodate misalignment.
