A method for assembling a cable connector which has an outer conductor part, and insulating part and an electrical cable that is prefabricated with an inner conductor part. In a first method step, the insulating part is introduced into the outer conductor part by relative movement between the insulating part and the outer conductor part. In a second method step, before or at least partially during the first method step, the electrical cable is prefabricated to have an inner conductor part secured on an inner conductor of the cable. In a third method step, during or after the first method step, the prefabricated cable is introduced into the insulating part up to a defined axial terminal position. The positions of the inner conductor part, the outer conductor part and/or the insulating part are fixed relative to each other by compressing the outer conductor part at least partly.
