A right-angled coaxial cable connector for coupling an end of a coaxial cable to a terminal is disclosed, the right-angled connector includes fewer components and better impedance characteristics. The right-angled coaxial cable connector includes a main body into which a coaxial cable is inserted, a retainer inserted into the main body, and a coupler for connecting the connector to a terminal. The right-angled coaxial cable connector also has a seal disposed between the retainer and the coupler.

What is claimed is: 1. A right-angled coaxial cable connector comprising: a main body having a first end and a second end, and an internal surface extending between the first and second ends of the main body, the internal surface defining a longitudinal opening, the main body also having a first opening at the first end and the second opening adjacent the second end, each opening having a longitudinal axis therethrough, the longitudinal axis of the first opening being generally perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of the second opening; a retainer having a rear end, a front end, and an internal surface extending between the rear and front ends of the retainer, the internal surface defining a longitudinal opening, the retainer disposed through the second opening and into the longitudinal opening of the main body, at least a portion of the rear end of the retainer engaging at least a portion of the internal surface of the main body; a coupler disposed proximate the front end of the retainer to engage a terminal, the coupler having a portion with a hexagonal outer configuration; and an electrical conductor disposed in the longitudinal openings of the main body and the retainer, the electrical conductor being bent through an angle of about 90�� to extend through the longitudinal opening of the retainer and out of the front end thereof. 2. The right-angled coaxial cable connector according to claim 1, wherein the electrical conductor is a one-piece continuous electrical conductor. 3. The right-angled coaxial cable connector according to claim 1, wherein the electrical conductor is a center conductor of a coaxial cable. 4. The right-angled coaxial cable connector according to claim 1, wherein the rear end engages at least a portion of the internal surface of the main body opposite the second opening of the main body. 5. The right-angled coaxial cable connector according to claim 1, further comprising an insulator disposed in the longitudinal opening of the main body adjacent the second opening and at least partially extending into the longitudinal opening of the retainer. 6. The right-angled coaxial cable connector according to claim 1, further comprising a seal disposed between the coupler and the retainer to prevent moisture ingress. 7. The right-angled coaxial cable connector according to claim 1, further comprising a second insulator disposed in longitudinal opening of the retainer adjacent the front end thereof. 8. The right-angled coaxial cable connector according to claim 1, further comprising a seal disposed between the main body and the retainer to prevent moisture ingress. 9. The right-angled coaxial cable connector according to claim 2, further comprising an insulator disposed adjacent the rear end of the retainer and between the internal surface of the main body and the one-piece continuous electrical conductor. 10. The right-angled coaxial cable connector according to claim 2, wherein the first end of the main body has at least one thread on an external surface and the one-piece continuous electrical conductor has female configuration at the first end of the main body. 11. The right-angled coaxial cable connector according to claim 2, wherein the first end of the main body has at least one thread on an external surface and the one-piece continuous electrical conductor has male configuration at the first end of the main body. 12. A method of making a right angle coaxial cable connector assembly, the method comprising the steps of: passing an end of a coaxial cable through a longitudinal opening in a compression sleeve; passing an insulator over a center conductor of the coaxial cable; passing the end of the coaxial cable into a longitudinal opening of a main body through a first end of the main body, the center conductor of the coaxial cable passing out of the longitudinal opening through an opening adjacent a second end of the main body; bending the center conductor about the insulator through an angle of about 90��; centering the bent center conductor in the opening in the second end of the main body; moving the center conductor into a longitudinal opening in a retainer; and inserting the retainer into the opening at the second end of the main body so that the center conductor extends through a front end of the retainer. 13. The method of making a right angle coaxial cable connector assembly according to claim 12, further comprising the step of moving the compression sleeve relative to the main body and coaxial cable, wherein at least part of the compression sleeve surrounds at least part of the main body. 14. The method of making a right angle coaxial cable connector assembly according to claim 12, wherein the retainer includes a coupler disposed proximate the front end of the retainer to engage a terminal. 15. The method of making a right angle coaxial cable connector assembly according to claim 14, wherein the coupler is rotatably mounted on the post. 16. The method of making a right angle coaxial cable connector assembly according to claim 14, wherein the main body and the retainer are press fit together. 17. The method of making a right angle coaxial cable connector assembly according to claim 13, wherein during the moving step, a portion of the coaxial cable is sandwiched between the compression sleeve and the main body. 18. The method of making a right angle coaxial cable connector assembly according to claim 12, wherein after the step of passing the insulator over the center conductor, the center conductor is pre-bent so it will pass through the opening at the second end of the main body. 19. The method of making a right angle coaxial cable connector assembly according to claim 12, wherein the retainer has an insulator disposed at the front end thereof, the insulator causing the center conductor to be centered in the front end of the retainer.
