Coaxial cable termination connector for connecting to a printed circuit board

A coaxial cable termination connector adapted to terminate a coaxial cable and to be mounted on a PCB, comprising:

• a metal shell, the shell defining a cavity;
• a metal main body, the main body being partially received in the cavity of the shell and having a plurality of grounding pins extending therefrom;
• an insert module received in the main body;
• and
• a center pin received in the insert module, the center pin having a connecting portion for electrically connecting to an inner core conductor of the coaxial cable and a mating portion for connecting to the PCB;
• wherein
• the grounding pins and the center pin are respectively soldered to corresponding circuit traces on the PCB, and the inner core conductor of the coaxial cable electrically connects with the PCB via the center pin, and a braided shielding layer of the coaxial cable connects with the PCB via the metal shell and metal main body and the grounding pins.

A coaxial cable termination connector assembly comprising:

• a metal shell assembly defining a cavity;
• an insulative insert located in a lower portion of the cavity;
• an center pin extending through the insert upwardly into an upper portion of the cavity and also downwardly beyond a bottom face of the metal shell assembly;
• at least one grounding pin extending downwardly from the shell assembly spatially away from the center pin;
• a retainer retainably located in the upper portion of the cavity, said retainer defining an outermost large section and an innermost small section closer to said center pin than said larger section;
• and
• a coaxial cable extending out of the shell assembly and including an inner core conductor electrically connected to the center pin, an insulative layer enclosing said core conductor, a shielding layer enclosing the insulative layer and secured to an interior periphery of the small section, and an outer jacket enclosing said shielding layer and secured to an interior periphery of the large section.
