An electrical crimp ferrule includes a circumferential center portion, a first circumferential flank connected to the center portion, and a second circumferential flank connected to the center portion. The circumferential center portion integrally connects the first and second circumferential flanks. At least one crimp diameter compensation element extends from at least one of the first circumferential flank or the second circumferential flank and is adapted to engage with an electrical cable having a non-circular cross section in a crimped state of the ferrule.

A securing sleeve for securing a shield of an electric conductor to a shielding contact includes a securing section having a bottom disposed between a pair of wings. The bottom supporting the electric conductor. The wings are spaced apart at a free end of each of the wings distal from the bottom by a slot extending in an axial direction in an open state of the securing sleeve. The wings have a plurality of complementary positive locking element at the free ends that secure the securing sleeve in a circumferential direction in a closed state.

The present invention provides a coaxial connector that realizes a high frequency signal flowing through a contact in a high frequency band. A coaxial connector includes a three-point contact, a housing including a first and a second connection base, and a shell including a cylindrical portion accommodating the first connection base and an extension portion covering one opening of the cylindrical portion with a bottom plate piece and accommodating the second connection base. The bottom plate piece includes an inclined surface having a higher side on the base end portion of the metal plate and a lower side on the tip end side of the metal plate. The distance between the metal plate of the contact and the bottom surface of the shell which are isolated by an insulating material of the housing is configured to become identical between the tip end side and the base end side of the contact.

Provided is a wiring structure with which a module board of one mobile communication apparatus can be connected to a circuit board of another mobile communication apparatus by using an optimal wiring material. The present invention is provided with: a main board 2; a first module board 8; a first connector that can be fitted to a coaxial cable connector and a connector mounted on a flexible printed board and that is mounted on the first module board; a second connector 10 fitted to the first connector; and wiring materials 6a, 6b, 14a-14e that are attached to the second connector and electrically connect the main board and the first module board.

A crimping tool (1) is used to axially fasten a cable braid (3) of a cable (2) between a crimp sleeve (4) arranged on the cable (2) and a support sleeve (5) by means of crimping. The crimping tool (1) includes a first pressing jaw (6) having a first through-opening (8), which extends in an axial direction (x), and a second pressing jaw (7) having a second through-opening (9), which is coaxial with the first through-opening (8). The first and the second pressing jaw (6, 7) are displaceable relative to each other in the axial direction. For the crimping, the first pressing jaw (6) has a support surface (10) for supporting the crimp sleeve (4) in the axial direction, and the second pressing jaw (7) has a funnel-shaped forming surface (11) arranged around the second through-opening (9), for crimping the crimp sleeve (4) with respect to the support sleeve (5).

A cable assembly comprises a conductive cable including an exposed conductive first section having a first cross-section, and a second section adjacent the first second and having a second cross-section distinct from the first cross-section. A ferrule is positioned over the conductive cable and includes a body defining a seam formed therethrough in an axial direction. The ferrule defines a first body portion deformed into a cross-section corresponding to the first portion of the conductive cable, and a second body portion deformed into a cross-section corresponding to the second portion of the conductive cable.

A method for crimping an electrical cable with a shielding braid and an insulation enclosing the shielding braid includes removing the insulation at a predetermined area to expose an exposed portion of the shielding braid. The method includes crimping an inner crimp sleeve onto the insulation adjacent to the predetermined area and then bending back the exposed portion of the shielding braid at least sectionally over the inner crimp sleeve.

A shielding electrical terminal is presented herein. The shielding electrical terminal includes a securing portion that is configured to attach to an outer shield conductor of a shielded cable and a cylindrical mating portion having an inner surface configured to make electrical contact with a corresponding cylindrical shield terminal inserted within the mating portion. The inner surface of the mating portion defines a plurality of protrusions that extend from the inner surface.

A power distributor (200) with at least two incoming lines (101-103) and a method for manufacturing such a power distributor is suggested. Each incoming line comprises a conductor (106,107) and an individual screen (114). The conductors of the incoming lines are connected at a connection point (V1,V2), which is enclosed by a screen shield (201) that contacts each individual screen (114) of the incoming lines. The screen shield (201) is made from electrically conducting plastic material. Screen shields made from electrically conducting plastic material is easier to manufacture and less expensive than metal screen shields.

A vehicular camera includes a front housing portion, a first circuit board having an imager, a second circuit board in board-to-board electrical connection with the first circuit board, and a rear housing portion having a connector for electrically connecting to an electrical connection of a wire harness of a vehicle. The rear housing portion when joined with the front housing portion forms a camera housing. The connector of the rear housing portion includes a multi-pin connector having at least three terminals that, with the rear housing portion joined with the front housing portion, electrically connect to respective terminals of the electrical connector at the second circuit board. The connector includes an electrically conductive metallic clamping element that engages a metallic shield element at the electrical connector at the second circuit board to establish a ground path from the connector of the rear housing portion to the second circuit board.
