Contact assembly for coaxial cable

A contact assembly for connecting to a coaxial cable, the contact assembly comprising;

• a first conductive member having first crimping tabs and second crimping tabs, the first crimping tabs provided to make mechanical engagement with an insulative jacket of the coaxial cable, and the second crimping tabs provided to make mechanical and electrical engagement with a metallic shield of the coaxial cable;
• a second conductive member having a first crimp barrel and a second crimp barrel, the first crimp barrel provided to make a mechanical and an electrical engagement with a center core of the coaxial cable, the second crimp barrel provided to make a mechanical engagement to a dielectric insulator of the coaxial cable;
• an insulator positioned and secured between the first conductive member and the second conductive member, the insulator providing electrical isolation between the first conductive member and the second conductive member.
