- 1. A method of attaching a connector assembly and a coaxial cable having an inner conductor and a corrugated outer conductor, said method comprising:
- attaching the end of the inner conductor of the coaxial cable to a center connector of the connector assembly,
- threading onto the corrugated outer conductor of said cable, an outer connector having a threaded inside surface, the inside wall of said outer connector forming a circumferential shoulder which extends radially inwardly along the end of the corrugated outer conductor of the cable so that said shoulder is pressed into engagement with the end of said outer conductor to make electrical contact therewith, and
- crimping at least a portion of said threaded portion of said outer connector into the corrugations of said outer conductor.
- 2. A method of attaching a connector assembly and a coaxial cable having an inner conductor and a corrugated outer conductor, said method comprising:
- (a) providing a connector assembly having a center connector and an outer connector having a threaded inside surface;
- (b) providing a coaxial cable having an inner conductor and a corrugated outer conductor;
- (c) attaching an end of said inner conductor of said coaxial cable to said center connector of the connector assembly;
- (d) threading onto said corrugated outer conductor of said cable, said outer connector; and
- (e) crimping at least a portion of said threaded portion of said outer connector into the corrugations of said outer conductor.
- 3. The method of claim 2, further including the step of forming providing a circumferential shoulder at the inside wall of said outer connector which extends radially inwardly along the end of said corrugated outer conductor of said cable so that said shoulder is pressed into engagement with the end of said outer conductor to make electrical contact therewith.
