Abstract

A connector for high frequency signals comprises a housing of insulating material and a plurality of male contact elements. The housing has a bottom and two opposite side walls extending upwardly from the bottom, the bottom and side walls determining a receiving space. The bottom is provided with cavities regularly arranged in rows and columns. Each of the contact elements is mounted in a cavity, an upper end of each contact element projecting into the receiving space. The bottom of the housing comprises first and second bottom parts, wherein the cavities extend through both bottom parts. At least a plurality of the cavities have a first stop in the first bottom part and a second stop in the second bottom part, wherein the first and second stops determine a mounting chamber. The contact elements are mounted in the cavities by means of at least one support element clampingly received between the first and second stops in the corresponding mounting chamber. The surface of the housing is completely metalized. At least a number of cavities are made to receive two contact elements. Each of said number of cavities is provided with two first and two second stops cooperating with the support elements of the two contact elements mounted in the cavity.
