US 11,824,319 B2 · Electrical cable terminal with two piece coaxial crimped outer ferrule

Abstract

A coaxial electrical cable assembly includes a central conductor disposed within a shield conductor of the coaxial cable and a shield terminal having a tubular portion. The central conductor of the coaxial cable is disposed within the tubular portion. The tubular portion is disposed within the shield conductor of the coaxial cable. The coaxial electrical cable assembly also includes a first outer ferrule crimped that is around the shield conductor of the coaxial cable and forms a first seam. The coaxial electrical cable assembly further includes a second outer ferrule that is crimped around the first outer ferrule and forms a second seam. The first seam and the second seam are radially offset from one another.
