Abstract

A coaxial connector is provided which can be used in cable systems which transmit telephone and internet service in addition to traditional cable television service. The coaxial connector generally comprises a housing which can consist of one or several components having a generally cylindrical central bore therethrough and a one or multiple piece generally hollow cylindrical insulator arranged in the central bore in the housing.
The coaxial connector also includes a generally cylindrical female center contact member which is arranged in the hollow interior of the insulator. The female contact member comprises a generally cylindrical outer surface which defines an open mating end which is adapted to receive the center conductor pin of a mating male connector and includes a pair of double bellows spring portions which extend inwardly from the outer surface on opposite sides of the cylinder. A pair of raised bumps are arranged on the contact surface of each double bellows spring portion in order to focus the contact force provided by the double bellows spring portions. Among other benefits, this unique contact configuration enables the coaxial connector to have superior high frequency electrical performance as compared to conventional coaxial connectors.
