    Patent number: 8771012
    Abstract: The present invention provides an antenna interface. The antenna interface includes a socket and a plug. The socket includes a body and two coaxial cables, each having a core, a braid coaxial to the core, and an electric insulator between the core and the braid. Each coaxial cable extends between a first end connected to a printed circuit board of the receiver and a second end at which the braid is electrically connected to the body, and at which the core can be accessed through an opening made in the body. The plug includes a body and at least two contactors such that, when the plug and the socket are connected, each contactor is arranged opposite an opening such that the core of a respective cable is electrically connected to the contactor, and the braid of each cable is electrically connected to the body of the plug via the body.
