Abstract

An electrical connector for coupling to a coaxial cable of the type having an inner conductor enclosed in an inner concentric insulation and having a generally concentric conductive sheath therearound and an outer insulation enclosing the conductive sheath. The connector has a housing having an electrically conductive portion and a bore therein. An electrically conductive pin has one end protruding axially into the housing bore and the second prong end extending in an opposite direction within a second housing bore. One or more conductive arms are electrically connected to the conductive housing portion and insulated from the electrical conductive prong and having pointed ends sized for driving the clamp into the outer insulation and into the conductive sheath without contacting the center conductor. A closure member for enforcing engagement of the pointed ends of the conductive arms into the outer insulation.
