Cable shield grounding electrical connectors comprise a cable having a cable shield, an inner insulating sleeve disposed radially inwardly from the cable shield, and an inner conductor radially inward of the inner insulating sleeve. An inner ferrule includes an outer surface, wherein a portion of the cable shield is disposed along at least a portion of the inner ferrule outer surface. An outer ferrule comprises a first section that is disposed concentrically around the inner ferrule, and wherein the portion of the cable shield is interposed between and in direct contact with each of the inner ferrule and the outer ferrule first section, thereby forming an assembly. The connector comprises a housing having an inner cavity and wherein the assembly is disposed within the inner cavity. An electrically interconnecting element is interposed between the assembly and the housing to provide a grounding electrical connection therebetween.
