  • FiG. 4 shown third embodiment differs differ from the exemplary embodiments illustrated in FIGS. 1 to 3 by another, particularly advantageous Variant in terms of its connections, here as SMD connections are executed. 4 are again for the better Understand the PCB-side inner conductor part 8 and its insulating sleeve 17 down from the housing 2 shown pulled out.
  • the SMD connectors 29 for the housing 2 including the outer conductor parts 5 and 25 integrated therein are standing surfaces of contact feet 30, which in large numbers on the circumference of the housing 2, on its underside 19, can be arranged and with their SMD connections 29 slightly project over the bottom 19 of the housing 2.
  • only four contact feet 30 are provided on the housing 2, namely two contact feet 30 on the rear outside 33 and two contact feet 30 on the front 6.
  • the SMD connector 31 of the printed circuit board-side inner conductor part 8 is at the free end of its angled foot part 32 provided that below an outward facing Bottom 19 and to the rear outside 33 of the housing 2 open groove channel 34 is arranged and with its SMD connector 31 via the outside opening of the groove channel 34 protrudes.
  • the pin clamp 16 at the top of the circuit board side Inner conductor part 8 can be designed in different ways his. Three expedient embodiments are shown in FIG. 5 to 7 enlarged.
  • the pin clamp 16 shown enlarged in FIG. 5 corresponds the embodiment in the embodiments 1 to 4 has already been specified. it consists of a closed longitudinal slot 35 in its central area to a plug hole 36 for the pin 10 of the inner conductor part 7 is expanded.
