In order to achieve impedance matching, a connector (A) is provided with: a housing (10) having terminal receiving chambers (11) disposed in two rows; two short-circuit members (30) which are attached to a plurality of terminal receiving chambers (11) arrayed in one row and a plurality of terminal receiving chambers (11) arrayed in the other row, and which constitute a differential pair; a plurality of terminal fixtures (40) which are separately fixedly attached to a main line (51) constituting the differential pair and a sub-line (52) constituting the differential pair, and which are inserted into the terminal receiving chambers (11) and are thereby connected to the short-circuit members (30); and a plurality of lances (13) formed on the housing (10) to prevent removal of the terminal fixtures (40) inserted into the terminal receiving chambers (11). The lances (13) are only provided in regions different from a region sandwiched between the plurality of terminal receiving chambers (11) arrayed in one row and the plurality of terminal receiving chambers (11) arrayed in the other row.

A backplane connector includes a housing and a number of wafers assembled to the housing. Each wafer includes a number of conductive terminals, an insulating frame and a metal shield. The housing includes an insulating housing and a metal shell fixed to the insulating housing. The insulating housing includes a number of slots for positioning the wafers. The metal shell is provided with a mating surface and a number of terminal receiving grooves. The contact portions of the conductive terminals are exposed in the corresponding terminal receiving grooves. The present disclosure improves the structural strength of the backplane connector and reduces the risk of damage the mating surface due to the push or collision of a mating connector.

A contact assembly for an electrical connector signal contacts arranged in pairs and ground contacts are interspersed with the pairs of the signal contacts. Each signal contact includes a signal contact body having first and second sides extending between a signal mating end and a signal terminating end. Each ground contact includes a ground contact body having first and second sides extending between a ground mating end and a ground terminating end. The contact assembly includes a ground shield assembly including a ground shield spanning across the contacts and ground connective elements electrically connected to the ground shield and the corresponding ground contacts. The ground connective elements are compressible.

An interposer includes a housing having a plurality of through-holes penetrating a first surface and a second surface and a signal contact pair composed of a pair of signal contacts. Each of the signal contacts includes a base portion press-fitted in one of the through-holes, a first contact beam extending from the base portion beyond the first surface, and a second contact beam extending from the base portion beyond the second surface. The pair of signal contacts are positioned adjacently to each other widthwise and are each asymmetrical with respect to a width direction. The signal contact pair has a plane-symmetrical shape with respect to the width direction.

A connector includes multiple ground terminals, multiple signal terminals, a cable and a ground assembly. The cable includes multiple ground wires and multiple signal wires. The ground assembly includes a plate and multiple protrusion structures. Each protrusion structure is arranged spacedly and extended from the plate. A top of each protrusion structure is higher than a surface of the plate. Each ground wire is electrically connected with each ground terminal and each protrusion structure. Each signal wire is electrically connected with each signal terminal. Each signal wire is formed between any two of the protrusion structures adjacent to each other. Therefore, high-speed transmission of digital signals may be undistortedly implemented.

Proposed is a pin array assembly and a connector for high-speed signal transmission using the same and, more particularly, a connector technology in which high-speed signal transmission characteristics are guaranteed by implementing a pin array assembly with multiple pins whose pitches are precisely adjusted by insert injection and a connector capable of relieving stress caused by an external force while applying the pin array assembly.

A plug connector for the mechanical and electrical connection to cable plugs of data cables has a housing (2) having at least one plug-in opening (1) for a complementary plug connector. Multiple electrical contact elements (5) protrude into the plug-in opening (1) and are guided on the rear side of the housing (2) on its outer side and are connected to a printed circuit board (6) fastened on the outside on the housing (2). The printed circuit board (6) carries a circuit and connection elements (7) for further electronic assemblies. This circuit on the printed circuit board (6) includes an assembly for galvanic isolation of the network signals, in which at least one chip-LAN transformer (13) mounted on the printed circuit board (6) is provided for each data line.

A connector comprises a housing and a plurality of contacts retained in the housing. Each of the contacts extends in a longitudinal direction and has a retained portion, a contacting portion disposed in front of the retained portion in the longitudinal direction, and a connecting portion disposed behind the retained portion in the longitudinal direction. Each of the contacting portion and the connecting portion are shifted with respect to the retained portion in a vertical direction perpendicular to the longitudinal direction. The housing is in contact with the retained portion of each of the contacts from both above and below in the vertical direction and from both right and left in a lateral direction perpendicular to the vertical direction and the longitudinal direction.
