  • Patent number: 10128586
    Abstract: A plug connector has an outer conductor socket to receive a coaxial cable. An inner conductor receiving element receives an inner conductor of the coaxial cable and is arranged in a centered manner within the outer conductor socket. The outer conductor socket has at least one contact-making area which makes electrical contact with an outer conductor of the coaxial cable. At least one separating element is arranged within the outer conductor socket in such a way that making electrical contact with the end of the outer conductor of a coaxial cable that can be or is inserted into the outer conductor socket and the outer conductor socket is prevented or suppressed. In the plugged-in state, the contact-making area is arranged in the outer conductor socket in such a way that electrical contact can be or is made radially with the circumferential wall adjoining the end.
