The cable attaches a first component and a second component using a quick disconnect connector pair. The cable includes a twisted pair of wires with a separate shield. A portion of the shielding near the connector is removed to expose the wires and assemble the wires to the connector. To reduce the EMI leakage, the inner shell encloses the exposed portions of the wires. In order to maintain the ground path for the shielding of the shielded twisted wire pairs, the shielding for the twisted wire pairs is connected to the shell. The outer shells facilitate the quick disconnect feature. The outer shell includes one or more slots. The slot allows a portion of the outer shell to become a cantilever beam. The beam deflects during disengagement and engagement with the outer shell.

An antenna feeding network for a multi radiator antenna is provided. The antenna feeding network comprises at least one coaxial line. Each coaxial line comprises a central inner conductor and an elongated outer conductor surrounding the central inner conductor, wherein at least one of the outer conductors of the coaxial lines is provided with an opening, wherein the antenna feeding network further comprises at least one nonconductive holding element configured to be placed in the opening. The holding element is configured to hold at least one of the inner conductors in position. The invention further relates to a multi radiator antenna comprising such an antenna feeding network, and to a method for providing an electrical connection in such an antenna feeding network.

A coaxial connector for interconnection with a coaxial cable with a solid outer conductor by ultrasonic welding is provided with a monolithic connector body with a bore. An annular flare seat is angled radially outward from the bore toward a connector end of the connector, the annular flare seat open to the connector end of the connector. An inner conductor cap is provided for interconnection with an inner conductor of the coaxial cable by ultrasonic welding. The ultrasonic welding of each of the inner and outer conductor interconnections may be performed via inner conductor and outer conductor sonotrodes which are coaxial with one another, without requiring the cable and or connector to be removed from their fixture.

A connector has first group terminals and second group terminals. Each of the first group terminals is provided with one first contact portion and at least one first wire connection portion. The first contact portion is located forward of the first wire connection portion. Each of the second group terminals is provided with one second contact portion and one second wire connection portion. The second contact portion is located forward of the second wire connection portion. The first contact portion and the second contact portion are arranged in a pitch direction. In the pitch direction, between adjacent two of the first contact portions, at least two of the second contact portions are located. The first wire connection portion is located at a position different from a position of the second wire connection portion in the front-rear direction and in the up-down direction.

A method and apparatus utilize a data connector, a connection adapter, and a matching transformer. The data connector receives a data signal from a communication line. The connection adapter, coupled to the data connector, receives the data signal with the data connector, adapts the data signal from the data connector to a coax connector, and communicates the data signal to the coax connector. The matching transformer, coupled to a coax cable, performs impedance matching between a first impedance associated with the coax connector and a second impedance associated with the coax cable communicating the data signal.

A deformable shield for mitigating radio frequency interference with a male coaxial connector includes a flexible hollow body having opposed front and rear ends, a concave section of the body proximate the front end, defining an open mouth of the shield configured to receive a female coaxial port, and a bellows section of the body behind the concave section. The bellows section terminates at the rear end with another mouth configured to be fit upon the male coaxial connector.

An antenna feeding network for a multi-radiator antenna, the antenna feeding network comprising at least two coaxial lines. Each coaxial line comprises a central inner conductor and an elongated outer conductor surrounding the central inner conductor. At least a first inner conductor and a second inner conductor of the at least two coaxial lines are indirectly interconnected.
