Zusammenfassung:Connectors for connecting multiple coaxial cables are typically complex with many parts and difficult to assemble. The present invention provides an improved multiple coaxial cable connector and a method of using the same. The preferred connector comprises a socket connector (8) adapted to receive a plurality of coaxial cables each terminated in a termination socket (7) and to expose at least a part of each socket when fitted, a connection element (10a,10b), and a casing component (3a,3b) adapted to receive the coaxial cables and including at least partial metallisation to a face plate (13a,13b). The connection element (10a,10b) bonds each termination socket (7) to the casing component face plate (13a,13b) and when connected, to a receiving element for the cable connector. Preferably the socket connector (8) is an SCI connector and the termination sockets (7) are SCI sockets. The connection element (10a,10b) preferably includes spring fingers (12) corresponding to each termination socket (7).
