A coaxial connecting member (1) for transmitting radio-frequency signals between a first and a second circuit board (2, 3) includes an inner conductor (4), an outer conductor (5) and an insulating member (6) arranged between the inner conductor (4) and the outer conductor (5). The inner conductor (4) and/or the outer conductor (5) comprise a first and a second end section (7, 8) to interconnect the inner conductor (4) to the first and the second circuit board (2, 3). The first and the second end section (7, 8) are interconnected to each other by at least one elastically deformable transversal section (9) to compensate axial and/or lateral misalignment of the first and the second circuit board (2, 3) with respect to each other.

A backplane connector includes a housing, a number of terminal modules assembled to the housing, and a mounting block. The housing includes a base, a first side wall and a second side wall. Each terminal module includes a first signal terminal and a second signal terminal. The first signal terminal has a first mounting foot, and the second signal terminal has a second mounting foot. The housing includes a receiving groove at a bottom end of the base. The mounting block is received in the receiving groove. The mounting block is made of electroplated plastic. The mounting block has an opening for the first mounting foot and the second mounting foot to extend through. As a result, the backplane connector has a better shielding effect.

Provided is a connector assembly including a first connector including a first terminal on a bottom surface thereof, and a first contact portion being a part of the first terminal and a projection portion on a surface opposite to the bottom surface; and a second connector including a second terminal on a bottom surface thereof, and a second contact portion being a part of the second terminal, the second contact portion being configured to be electrically connected to the first contact portion, and a groove portion configured to receive the projection portion, on a surface opposite to the bottom surface, wherein at least a part of a surface of the projection portion is in intimate contact with a part of a surface of the groove portion, and each of the first and second connectors is an integrally-molded product including an insulating member and a conductive member.

In a plug connector, a ground contact conductor includes: a fitting portion to fit to a ground contact conductor of a mate connector; and a clamp portion to hold a second exposing portion of a coaxial cable (a portion of a terminal portion of the coaxial cable where a part of an insulating sheath has been removed) to contact a shield exposed at the second exposing portion, without the ground contact conductor overlapping an outer peripheral surface of the insulating sheath. The clamp portion is located at an end of the ground contact conductor farthest from the fitting portion. The second exposing portion is adjacent to a first exposing portion formed at the terminal portion where a signal line is exposed.

A connector device that includes a circuit board; a connector attached to the circuit board; and a molded resin that covers the entire circuit board and part of the connector, wherein: a housing of the connector contains a resin material and fibrous inorganic fillers, a groove is formed in a region of a surface of the housing that is covered with the molded resin, the groove being formed by removing the resin material with the inorganic fillers remaining, and extending in a direction that intersects a mounting direction in which a counterpart connector is to be mounted to the connector, the groove has a depth and a width in a range from 50 μm to 150 μm inclusive, and the groove is filled with the molded resin.

A connection apparatus includes: a housing case, where the housing case includes a first side face and a second side face that are intersected and disposed adjacent to each other; a first connector, disposed on the first side face and configured to be connected to a connector of a first line card, so that the connection apparatus is orthogonally connected to the first line card; and a second connector, disposed on the second side face and connected to the first connector. The second connector is configured to be connected to a connector of a network board. The connection apparatus can improve a capacity of the communications device.

An electrical connector assembly includes a male/plug/first connector and a female/receptacle/second connector mateable with each other. The first connector includes a first plate and a plurality of first contacts retained to the first plate, and the second connector includes a second plate and a plurality of second contacts retained to the second plate. The first plate includes opposite first long side and second long side to respectively form a first alignment structure and a second alignment structure which is offset from the first alignment structure in the longitudinal direction. The second plate includes opposite third long and fourth long side to respectively form a third alignment structure and a fourth alignment structure to be coupled to the corresponding first alignment structure and second alignment structure during mating.

An electrical connector electrically connects a first electrical module and a second electrical module, for insertion by the first electrical module along a first direction. The electrical connector includes a first group of terminals arranged in a row along a second direction, having multiple signal terminals and multiple ground terminals and forming at least one first terminal unit and at least one second terminal unit. Each of the terminals has a contact portion, a tail portion, and a middle portion located between the contact portion and the tail portion. In the second direction, the middle portions of the first terminal unit form a first row of the middle portions, and the middle portions of the second terminal unit form a second row of the middle portions. Viewing from the second direction, the first and second rows of the middle portions are staggered, thus improving the crosstalk.

A radio-frequency connector assembly includes a radio-frequency line, connector male terminals, connector female terminals, and a circuit board, wherein each connector male terminal includes a male terminal substrate; each connector female terminal includes a female terminal substrate; the connector male terminal further includes a shielding case which shields the male terminal substrate and is conductive with the radio-frequency line in a grounding manner; and the connector female terminal further includes a shielding frame which is internally provided with the female terminal substrate and is circumferentially seamless entirely, and the bottom end of the shielding frame makes contact with the circuit board to form an annular contact region, so that signals of the connector female terminals will not leak sideways; and the shielding cases can prevent signal leakage and signal interference from the top of the shielding frame, so that matched signal terminals are kept in a fully-shielded operating environment.

An electrical connector pin comprising a link segment for linking to the connector and an end segment that is free, the end segment having a cross-section that presents at least one curved portion curved about an axis parallel to a longitudinal direction of the end segment and the end segment having side edges forming electrical contact portions that can be moved towards each other causing the curved portion to deform elastically.
