  • Patent number: 7416418
    Abstract: A coaxial connector for interconnecting two printed circuit cards, the connector comprising a cylindrical first connector element designed to be secured at one end to a first printed circuit card, and a second cylindrical connector element designed to come into contact via one end with a second printed circuit card, each connector element having a central contact and an outer contact separated by insulation, resilient means being interposed between the first and second connector elements and urging the central and outer contacts of the second connector element towards the second printed circuit card. The connector has annular bearing surfaces offset radially outwards from the central contact bodies and co-operating therewith to define a first volume in which a first spring is mounted, and annular bearing surfaces offset radially inwards from the outer contact bodies and co-operating therewith to define a second volume in which a second spring is mounted.
