Abstract

This disclosure relates to a connector comprising a first RF contact; a second RF contact spaced apart from the first RF contact in a first axis direction; an insulation part; and a cover shell, wherein the first RF contact includes a (1-1)th RF linker member connecting with an RF contact of the other connector; a (1-2)th RF linker member spaced apart from the (1-1)th RF linker member on the basis of a second axis direction perpendicular to the first; and a first RF linker member arranged between the (1-1)th RF linker member and the (1-2)th RF linker member on the basis of the second axis direction, the insulation part includes a first RF inspection window arranged between the (1-1)th RF linker member and the (1-2)th RF linker member on the basis of the second axis direction, and the first RF linker member is exposed through the first RF inspection window.

Dependent claims

A connector, comprising:

a first radio frequency (RF) contact for transmitting an RF signal;
a second RF contact which is arranged to be spaced apart from the first RF contact in a first axis direction (X-axis direction);
an insulation part to which the first RF contact and the second RF contact are coupled;
and
a cover shell to which the insulation part is coupled and which is disposed to surround an inner space,
wherein the first RF contact comprises:
a (1-1)th RF linker member for connecting with an RF contact of a counterpart connector;
a (1-2)th RF linker member which is arranged to be spaced apart from the (1-1)th RF linker member based on a second axis direction (Y-axis direction) that is perpendicular to the first axis direction (X-axis direction);
and
a first RF linker member which is arranged between the (1-1)th RF linker member and the (1-2)th RF linker member based on the second axis direction (Y-axis direction),
wherein the insulation part comprises a first RF inspection window which is arranged between the (1-1)th RF linker member and the (1-2)th RF linker member based on the second axis direction (Y-axis direction) and is formed to pass through the insulation part, and
wherein the first RF linker member is arranged to be exposed through the first RF inspection window so that whether the first RF linker member is mounted can be visually confirmed.
