A male connector (10) to be covered together with a board (P) by a case (C) with the male connector (10) connected to the board (P). The male connector (10) includes a male housing (11) connectable to a female connector (60) and including a back wall (25A) partitioning between the outside of the case (C) on the side of the female connector (60) and the inside of the case (C) on the side of the board (P) while extending in a vertical direction. The back wall (25A) has an opening (26) open in a connecting direction of the female connector (60) and allowing communication between the outside and inside of the case (C). A step is provided on an edge of the opening (26) so that an upper edge (26A) of the opening (26) is more forward than a lower edge (26B) of the opening (26).

A heatable media line includes a connecting part, which establishes an electrical connection, and serves to introduce a heat conductor into a media line section. A connection of the heat conductor with contact-forming parts is set up in an end part, and the heat conductor is tightly accommodated in boreholes of a coupling part by means of two sealing bodies spaced apart from each other, as well as introduced into the media line section by way of a supporting body for purposes of heating a medium flowing in the latter. In order to produce a reliable seal intended to prevent the medium from penetrating into the end part, recesses in the walls of the coupling part and an interruption of a creepage distance are configured between the sealing bodies such that the heat conductor is directly in contact with the surrounding atmosphere.

Cable connection assemblies for marine propulsion, and associated systems and methods are disclosed. A representative connection assembly includes a multi-conductor cable having two high voltage power conductor lines, two low voltage power conductor lines, two interlock lines, and two signal lines. The assembly further includes a connector having a connector body carrying connection elements corresponding to each of the conductor lines, interlock lines, and signal lines. In further representative embodiments, one or more of the connection elements can be housed in corresponding insulating bodies. In still further representative embodiments, the assembly can be configured so that the high voltage lines are the first to mate, and the last to un-mate, which, together with the interlock loop, can reduce or eliminate the likelihood for high voltage arcing.

An ROV, diver, or stab, wet mateable connector plug front end housing includes a housing front section; a locator mount section; and a seal section axially in series with one another. The housing front section includes a plug coarse alignment feature on an outer surface of the housing front section, adjacent to a front surface of the housing front section and radially outward of a central axis of the housing. There is a circumferential groove on the outer surface of the housing front section, axially displaced from and rearward of the coarse alignment feature, the groove being adapted to receive a latch of a wet-mateable connector receptacle front end housing. The plug coarse alignment feature includes a bullnose feature. A plug fine alignment feature is formed in the outer surface of the housing front section, aligned with and located radially outward of the central axis of the housing.

A dry mate cable connection includes a data cable. The data cable includes a plurality of electrical conductors and at least one electrically insulating outer layer surrounding each data conductor, whereby the data conductors are electrically insulated from one another. The cable includes a termination end. The outer layer of each conductor is physically in contact with an outer layer of an adjacent conductor, except at the termination end. The plurality of electrical conductors at the termination end are physically separated from one another by a single electrically insulating overmoulded cable termination housing. The housing is in contact with at least part of the electrically insulating layers of each of the electrical conductors.
