An electrical connector includes an insulative portion, a plurality of terminals supported by the insulative portion and are disposed in a row, and a lossy member. Each of the terminals includes a first end, a mounting end, and an intermediate portion. The lossy member includes a body portion elongated in a row direction and a plurality of projections extending from the body portion toward the first ends of a subset of the terminals. Each of the terminals includes a first surface and a second surface opposite the first surface, with the first face including a first contact region. The projections of the lossy member are aligned with the second surfaces of the subset of terminals. Upon mating the electrical connector to a complementary connector, the terminals may deflect towards the projections of the lossy member, improving contact with the lossy member and thus improving its effectiveness.

The present invention relates to a cable arrangement comprising a cable that has an outer conductor, and an outer-conductor contact element that is electrically connected to the outer conductor and has a diameter change. In a region of the diameter change, the cable arrangement also has a filling element, which is electrically conductive. The filling element is configured to reduce an air inclusion in the region of the diameter change.

An electrical connector includes an insulating member, plural signal terminals to be fixed and held to the insulating member, and plural ground terminals to be elastically held to the insulating member. The signal terminals and the ground terminals are disposed in a first direction of the insulating member. Regarding the ground terminal and the signal terminal adjacent to each other as viewed from the first direction, the signal terminal length of the signal terminal in a second direction, which is perpendicular to the first direction, is shorter than the ground terminal length of the ground terminal in the second direction. The signal terminal includes a signal terminal contact engaging portion. The signal terminal contact engaging portion is positioned within a range of the ground terminal length of the ground terminal as viewed from the first direction.

The invention is applicable to the technical field of connectors, and in particular, relates to a terminal structure for a high-speed data transmission connector and a connector thereof. The terminal structure for a high-speed data transmission connector comprises an upper row terminal and a lower row terminal respectively assembled at an upper end and a lower end of an insulating body of the high-speed data transmission connector, and electrically connected to a PCB motherboard of the high-speed data transmission connector, the upper row terminal comprising a front-end terminal and a rear-end terminal connected to each other, and the terminal structure further comprises: a first anti-resonance module comprising a first conducting member disposed on the front-end terminal; and a second anti-resonance module comprising a second conducting member disposed on the rear-end terminal; wherein an exterior angle at connection of the front-end terminal and the rear-end terminal is from 55° to 80°. In view of this, the application improves anti-resonance effect of the terminal structure and the connector.

An electrical connector assembly includes a first connector. The first connector has a main body. The main body has a first end wall and a second end wall opposite to each other. Multiple first terminals are provided on the main body. The first connector is used to be mated with a circuit board. The circuit board has multiple first conductive portions, multiple second conductive portions and multiple first wires electrically connecting the first conductive portions and the second conductive portions correspondingly. The second conductive portion is correspondingly electrically connected to the first terminal. The first end wall is located closer to the first conductive portion relative to the second end wall. A top surface of the first end wall is lower than a corresponding first conductive portion adjacent to the first end wall.

A modular electrical connector facilitates low loss connections to components on a printed circuit board. A portion is of the connector is formed of one or more first type units with conductive elements designed to be attached to a printed circuit board. Signals passing through those units may be routed to components on the printed circuit board through traces in the board. One or more second type units may be integrated with the connector. Those units may be designed for attachment to a cable, which may provide signal paths to a location on the printed circuit board near relatively distant components.
