A contact element for connecting to a cable having a braided shield includes a spring contact sleeve and a crimp sleeve. The spring contact sleeve has an annular ring and spring contacts arranged circumferentially on one end of the annular ring. The spring contact sleeve and the crimp sleeve form an enclosed hollow cavity between one another when the crimp sleeve is joined to the annular ring. The hollow cavity is configured to fully receive therein an exposed portion of the braided shield provided for connection of the contact element to the cable.

The contact element of claim 1 wherein: the spring contacts have free end portions extending away from the rearward end of the annular ring. 3. The contact element of claim 1 wherein: each spring contact has a first spring contact portion and a second spring contact portion, the first spring contact portions ascend relative to an axis of symmetry of the spring contact sleeve more than the second spring contact portions. 4. The contact element of claim 1 wherein: the annular ring has an uninterrupted surface. 5. The contact element of claim 1 wherein: the annular ring has a collar on the forward end of the annular ring. 6. The contact element of claim 1 wherein: the crimp sleeve has a form of a cap. 7. The contact element of claim 6 wherein: the crimp sleeve has a base plate having a circular-shaped aperture passage. 8. The contact element of claim 1 wherein: the crimp sleeve has an inner contour structure. 9. The contact element of claim 8 wherein: the inner contour structure of the crimp sleeve has one of a spiral, helix, diamond shaped, and corrugated pattern. 10. A cable assembly comprising: a cable having a braided shield;a contact element having a spring contact sleeve and a crimp sleeve, the spring contact sleeve having an annular ring and a plurality of spring contacts arranged circumferentially on one end of the annular ring, the spring contact sleeve and the crimp sleeve together form an enclosed hollow cavity between one another when the crimp sleeve is joined to the annular ring;wherein the spring contact sleeve and the crimp sleeve are placed on the cable with the cable extending through aperture passages of the spring contact sleeve and the crimp sleeve and the crimp sleeve is joined to the annular ring to thereby form the enclosed hollow cavity between the spring contact sleeve and the crimp sleeve, the hollow cavity fully receives therein in a physical contact manner an exposed portion of the braided shield to thereby electrically connect the contact element to the cable; andwherein the crimp sleeve has an inner grip contour structure around the aperture passage of the crimp sleeve, wherein the inner grip contour structure enables the exposed portion of the braided shield to be pulled underneath the crimp sleeve and into the hollow cavity during rotational movement of the crimp sleeve while the crimp sleeve is being joined to the spring contact sleeve. 11. The assembly of claim 10 wherein: the plurality of spring contacts form a lamellar crown that opens in a direction extending away from the one end of the annular ring. 12. The assembly of claim 10 wherein: each spring contact has a first spring contact portion, a second spring contact portion, and a contain point of the second spring contact portion, the first spring contact portion ascends relative to an axis of symmetry of the spring contact sleeve more than the second spring contact portion. 13. The assembly of claim 12 further comprising: a socket contact connected to an inner conductor of the cable; anda metal housing for the socket contact, the metal housing pushed over the contact element with the first spring contact portions being pushed radially inward by a socket portion of the metal housing and the second spring contact portions lying against the socket portion of the metal housing with the contact points being in contact with the metal housing. 14. The assembly of claim 10 wherein: the annular ring has a collar on another end, wherein a diameter of the collar is smaller than a diameter of the aperture passage of the spring contact sleeve. 15. The assembly of claim 14 wherein: the cable further has an inner insulation beneath the braided shield and an outer sheath above the braided shield; andthe spring contact sleeve is placed on the cable such that the collar of the annular ring strikes a front edge of the outer sheath to thereby provide an identifiable positioning of the spring contact sleeve with respect to the cable. 16. The assembly of claim 15 wherein: the inner insulation and the exposed portion of the braided shield are cut to a same length from where the collar strikes the front edge of the outer sheath. 17. The assembly of claim 10 wherein: a diameter of the aperture passage of the crimp sleeve is smaller than a diameter of the aperture passage of the spring contact sleeve. 18. The assembly of claim 10 wherein: the crimp sleeve has an open side, wherein the open side of the crimp sleeve is pushed over the annular ring to form the hollow cavity between the spring contact sleeve and the crimp sleeve when the crimp sleeve is joined to the annular ring. 19. A contact element for connecting to a cable having a braided shield, comprising: a spring contact sleeve having an annular ring and a plurality of spring contacts arranged circumferentially on one end of the annular ring;a crimp sleeve; andwherein the spring contact sleeve and the crimp sleeve form an enclosed hollow cavity between one another when the crimp sleeve is joined to the annular ring, the hollow cavity configured to fully receive therein an exposed portion of the braided shield provided for connection of the contact element to the cable;wherein the annular ring includes wells and the crimp sleeve includes cams, wherein the cams of the crimp sleeve respectively insert into the wells of the annular ring when the crimp sleeve is joined to the annular ring. 20.
