RF CONNECTOR ELEMENTS AND RF CONNECTOR SYSTEM

The present invention relates to mateable RF connector elements and to a RF connector system comprising a first RF connector element and a second RF connector element. A first RF connector element (100, 400, 500) for mating with a second RF connector element comprises a first terminal (104, 404, 504), having a first contact region (110, 410, 510) for electrically connecting a first mating terminal of the second RF connector element, a second terminal (106, 406, 506) having a second contact region for electrically connecting a second mating terminal of the second RF connector element and a first electrical insulator element (102, 402, 502) for electrically insulating the first terminal (104, 404, 504) and the second terminal (106, 406, 506). Said first electrical insulator element (102, 402, 502) comprises a first contact support part (114, 414, 514), which is integrally formed of a first dielectric material, having a first relative dielectric constant, and a first compensation part (116, 416, 516), which is integrally formed with the first contact support part (114, 414, 514) and of a second dielectric material, having a second relative dielectric constant, which is larger than the first relative dielectric constant, wherein the first compensation part (116, 416, 516) is arranged at a front end region of the first electrical insulator element (102, 402, 502) and at least partly encompasses the first contact region (110, 510) of the first inner conductor (102, 402, 502).
