COAXIAL TAP CONNECTOR ABSTRACT The present invention relates to electrical coaxial cable connectors for establishing an electrical tap connection to the inner conductor thereof. Prior art connectors either require the cable to be cut and spliced or require a continuous radial opening or channel to be formed in the cable. In either case these connectors are not easily installed. The connector of the present invention is easily installed and provides a very secure connection. The electrical con- nector includes a connector body having a U-shaped alignment cavity configured for snugly receiving a coaxial cable and an elongate con- tact member extending into the cavity from a point disposed along the base thereof. The contact member is adapted for piercing an intact portion of a coaxial cable received within the alignment cavity for making electrical connection with the central conductor of the cable. A pair of additional contact members extend into the alignment cavity and are adapted for piercing intact portions of the coaxial cable for making electrical connection with the conductive braid encircling the central conductor.
