Abstract: A shielded connector assembly is provided for a coaxial cable which includes a center conductor with an insulating layer thereabout, a conductive shield and an outer insulating covering. A non-conductive body is provided for receiving an end of the coaxial cable with the conductive shield exposed. The body has a conductive contact thereon for engaging the center conductor of the cable. A conductive outer casing is positioned about at least a portion of the body for shielding the cable end and having a portion for engaging the outside of the conductive shield of the cable. A rigid sheath is positioned between the insulating layer and the conductive shield of the cable to provide backing support for the shield on the inside thereof. The portion of the conductive outer casing which engages the outside of the conductive shield of the cable projects through a slit in the body. Preferably, the body includes a single lower body part and a pair of upper body parts.

Abstract: The invention concerns a connector for a multiwire electric cables and comprises two elongate covers inside of each there is located a cable wire conduit on which incoming and outgoing wires, respectively, are secured. A coupling plate is disposed between the two wire conduits for interconnecting the incoming and outgoing wires. The interconnection is made by utilizing insulation displacement contacts having slots extending inward from both ends.
