A cable retainer insert for a multi-strand cable includes a cable contact portion and a plurality of cable receptacles in the cable contact portion circumferentially spaced from each other. Each of the cable receptacles receives a strand of the multi-strand cable. Each of the cable receptacles has a cable strand insertion opening at a radially outward end and a bottom at an opposite radially inward end. A circle inscribed in each of the cable receptacles and touching the bottom of the cable receptacle extends radially outward beyond the cable strand insertion opening.

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.

An ultra-low profile coaxial cable connector (i.e. plug) is provided that implements a lateral coupling of a coaxial cable inner conductor and center pin of a mating PCB-mounted coaxial receptacle. The overall height of a mating coaxial receptacle center pin is also reduced by way of a cutout in the receptacle ground ring as well as a cutout in a mating outer shell of the coaxial cable connector. The ultra-low profile coaxial cable connector achieves a reduction in mated height of less than 1.0 mm for both 1.13 mm diameter and 0.81 mm diameter coaxial cables. In both cases, the coaxial cable connector designs as discussed herein enable a further reduction in the total thickness of communication module boards to 1.25 mm, thereby meeting the high demands for thinner electronic device designs.

An electrical multi-conductor cable comprising a plug-in connector, in particular a line with a charging plug for electric vehicles. The cable has a central cable core, a number of conductors which are arranged concentrically in relation to one another in a ring around the cable core and are composed of individual wires, and in each case one insulation between the conductors. According to the invention, the contact apparatus has two clamping shell parts which, on the inner side thereof, have a plurality of receptacles which are radially stepped from one another. In each case one contact body is received in the receptacles of a clamping shell part and makes contact with one of the concentric conductors. Each contact body has a channel shape with a longitudinal extent and a curved cross-sectional profile around an associated conductor. A closure connects the clamping shell parts and fastens said clamping shell parts in the closed position, wherein the clamping shell parts coaxially hold the contact bodies and press each contact body against the respectively associated concentric conductor for contact-making purposes.

A cable joint includes a cable joint body, a conductive connector disposed within the cable joint body and electrically connecting a first cable to a second cable, and a first conductive element electrically connecting a first shielding layer of the first cable to a second shielding layer of the second cable. The cable joint body includes a first insulating sleeve and a re-jacketing sleeve at least partly encompassing the first insulating sleeve. The re-jacketing sleeve forms a channel along a longitudinal axis of the first insulating sleeve. The first conductive element is disposed within the channel. The channel is collapsed after heat shrinking the first insulating sleeve and the re-jacketing sleeve.

A coaxial connector includes an outer conductor portion including a polymer shell, the polymer shell defining an inner bore extending from a first open end to a second open end opposite the first open end, and a conductive layer positioned on the inner bore of the polymer shell, an outer surface of the polymer shell, or both, where the conductive layer is structurally configured to be electrically coupled to an outer conductor of a coaxial transmission medium, an electrically-insulating intermediate member positioned at least partially within the inner bore of the polymer shell, and an inner conductor portion engaged with the electrically-insulating intermediate member and positioned at least partially within the inner bore of the polymer shell, where the inner conductor portion is configured to be electrically coupled to an inner conductor of the coaxial transmission medium and electrically isolated from the conductive layer of the outer conductor portion.

According to an embodiment of the disclosure, an electronic device may comprise: a housing including a front surface facing a first direction, a rear surface facing in a second direction opposite to the first direction, and a side structure including a side surface at least partially surrounding a space between the front surface and the rear surface, a coaxial cable at least partially disposed in the housing, a fixing member comprising a conductive material having electrical conductivity and disposed in the housing surrounding at least a portion of the coaxial cable, and an electrical/electronic component disposed in the housing and including a body portion at least partially disposed in the housing and a flexible printed circuit board extending from the body portion. The fixing member may be configured to electrically connect the coaxial cable and the flexible printed circuit board with the housing.

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.

A plug connector according to the present invention is slidably inserted into a receptacle connector, and includes a signal pin having one side in electrical contact with one side of a signal line of a cable; a shield can electrically spaced apart from the signal pin and surrounding the signal pin such that a lower surface of the other side of the signal pin is exposed; a first insulating member coupled to the signal pin to insulate the signal pin and the shield can from each other; and a plug shell surrounding the shield can such that the lower surface of the other side of the signal pin is exposed.
