Abstract: A switching coaxial jack has an electrically grounded housing that supports first and second connectors at a first end of the housing and third and fourth connectors at a second end of the housing. A first center conductor is disposed within the first connector, a second center conductor is disposed within the second connector, a third center conductor is disposed within the third connector, and a fourth center conductor is disposed within the fourth connector. A sliding switch within the housing has a first position that electrically couples the first and third center conductors to one another and a second position that electrically couples the first center conductor to one of the second center conductor and the terminating element.
