Abstract: This invention relates to a coaxial connector having an injection molded dielectric. The preferred embodiment of the invention is an improved insulated-from-ground panel connector having a onepiece molded body of an insulating material. The molded body has a rear portion shaped to coact with a suitable element for mounting the connector (for example a screw thread) and a forward portion shaped to form the mating face dielectric for the connector. An inner contact of a conductive material passes through the center of and is molded into the body. The connector also has an outer contact over which a forward portion of the insulating body is molded. The outer contact extends over and beyond the mating face dielectric and has a conductive lead molded in, extending through, and projecting from the rear of the body.

Abstract: An electrical connector is provided in which one of the connecting members includes a mating section with a radial face of relatively soft metal disposed around an entry aperture and protected by a shroud member extending axially towards the other member to form an enlarged opening and internally having rotational coupling surfaces such as screw threads for coupling the members, the other other connecting member including a sleeve of harder metal housing at least one insulated contact hermetically mounted in a glass insert with the contact arranged to extend into the aperture of the one connecting member and an integral mating portion facing the second member with a radial flange formed by a circumferential undercut to be outwardly deflectable away from the radial face, the radial flange outwardly forming a deflectable beam section with radially inner and outer frontwardly converging surfaces and an axially extending cutting edge formed thereby, the sleeve outwardly including rotational coupling surfaces such
