On the electrical cable 1, its drainage strands 21, 22 have already been separated, as shown in FIG Figures 2A and 2B described.
  • the lead frame is then provided, from which the carrier body 4 and the cable-side and output-side contact elements 31, 32; 71, 72 together with the other associated components 33, 34; 73, 74 are formed.
  • the stripped free ends of the wires 11, 12 of the electrical cable 1, on each of which the associated core is exposed in the form of an electrical line 11a, 12a, are each connected to a cable-side contact element 31, 32 via its receptacle 33, 34 in contact or in Intervention brought.
  • An additional connection is made at the respective contact or engagement area, preferably with a material fit, for example by soldering or welding.
  • the electrical component 5 is arranged on the carrier body 4 and fixed there (cohesively) and via the wires 61, 62, 63, 64 with the cable-side and output-side contact elements 31, 32; 71, 72 electrically connected.
  • the components defining the interior of the electrical connector namely the carrier body 4 and the contact elements 31, 32; 71, 72 with the further associated components 33, 34; 73, 74 as well as the electrical component 5 arranged on the carrier body 4, including the associated wires, are then provided with the insulating encapsulation 85 by overmolding, forming the channels 86.
  • the outer conductor 8 is now pushed (by means of the first slots 81) over the aforementioned components of the electrical plug connector, the outer conductor 8 being guided through the carrier body 4, as described above with reference to Figure 3A explained. Then the drainage strands 21, 22 with their free end sections 21a, 22a, compare Figures 5A and 5B , introduced into the second slots 82 of the outer conductor 8 provided for this purpose and fixed there in a materially bonded manner, for example by soldering, welding or gluing. And there are the support sections 43, 44 of the support body 4 to form the annular configuration from the Figures 1A and 1B bent over, as in Figure 6B shown, and optionally also firmly bonded, for example by welding, fixed to the outer conductor 8.
  • the transition between the electrical cable 1 and the plug connector is provided with the extrusion coating 18, which in particular encloses the support crimp 16.
