A connecting port assembly of an electrical device comprises an internally threaded female port formed from a portion of a housing of an electrical device, where the female port is configured for threaded engagement with an externally threaded male coaxial cable connecting element. The connecting port assembly further comprises a seizure pin located within the female port where the seizure pin includes at one end a plurality of radially spaced-apart arcuate blades extending toward an opening of the female port with the blades being configured for therebetween receiving, mechanically retaining and electrically contacting a center conductor of the connecting element, and at another end being electrically connected to electrical circuitry located in other portions of the housing, and a collar assembly located around the plurality of blades within the female port, the collar assembly being configured to exert a radially inward compressive force around the plurality of blades for effecting contact and retainment by the plurality of blades with the center conductor in response to the advancement of an end portion of the connecting element into the female port.

[ What is claimed is:] [1.]1. A connecting port assembly of an electrical device, said port assembly comprising:a female port formed from a portion of a housing of said electrical device, said female port being configured for mechanical retainment and electrical connection with a coaxial cable connecting element through an opening therein;a seizure member located within said female port, said seizure member having one end electrically coupled to electrical circuitry located in other portions of said housing, said seizure member being configured at another end for receiving, mechanically retaining and electrically contacting a center conductor or pin of said coaxial cable connecting element; andan actuating assembly being configured for effecting mechanical retainment and electrical contact of the seizure member to the center conductor or pin in response to advancement of an end portion of said coaxial cable connecting element into said female port during connection and retainment therebetween, said actuating assembly including a contact pressure restricter for limiting excessive contact pressure exerted by the seizure member on the center conductor or pin.
