Patent attributes
Techniques for attaching a coaxial cable to an assembly are provided. A conductive layer is applied to a top and bottom surface of a first layer and the bottom surface of a second layer. An aperture is formed through the first layer. The first layer is affixed to the top of the second layer to form an assembly. A signal via and one or more shield vias are formed in the assembly. The signal via and the one or more shield vias, are covered with a conductive layer. The signal via is then electrically separated from the shield vias and the aperture. A stripped coaxial cable may then be inserted into the aperture so that the conductive core of the coaxial cable is electrically connected to the signal via but electrically isolated from the shield vias and aperture. The coaxial cable may then be secured to the assembly.
