contents According to V. Kac and J. van de Leur, the superconformal algebras are the simple $\Z$-graded Lie superalgebras of growth one which contains the Witt algebra. We describe an explicit classification of all cuspidal modules over the known supercuspidal algebras of rank $\geq 1$, and their central extensions. Our approach reveals some unnoticed phenomena. Indeed the central charge of cuspidal modules is trivial, except for one specific central extension of the contact algebra $\K(4)$. As shown in the paper, this fact also impacts the representation theory of $\K(3)$, $\CK(6)$ and $\K^{(2)}(4)$. Besides these four cases, the classification relies on general methods based on highest weight theory.
