A unisex magnetic coaxial connector device comprises a coaxial cable and a coaxial adapter. The coaxial adapter comprises a ring-shaped magnetic element magnetised along the axis, and means for holding and biasing the ring-shaped magnetic element. The ring-shaped magnetic element comprises an even number of magnetic segments having alternating magnetic polarities at the end. The ring-shaped magnetic element engages with an identical ring-shaped magnetic element of another coaxial adapter and provides alignment in a unisex arrangement. Preferably, each magnetic segment of the ring-shaped magnetic element of the magnetic coaxial adapter is made of a rare-earth permanent magnet. Each magnetic segment of the ring-shaped magnetic element may have a ring shape divided by a multiple of 2 along the axis, or have a rod shape and is embedded in a non-magnetic material. This invention relates to coaxial connector devices, and the principal use of the invention is for electro-optical connection.
