The switch is used for controlling the connection or disconnection between the first signal connection point and the second signal connection point. In the above-mentioned manner, the connector and a heavy load may be disconnected by the switch when the connector is pulled out, so that risks of instant ignition and short circuit caused by the connector pulled out may be avoided, and safety accidents may be reduced.

An electrical connector includes an insulating housing, at least one flexible printed circuit board mounted in the insulating housing, at least one location block disposed to a middle of an outer surface of the at least one flexible printed circuit board, at least one elastic structure disposed on an outer surface of the at least one location block, and a shell. The at least one flexible printed circuit board includes an outer ground layer, a signal layer and an inner ground layer. The signal layer has a plurality of traces. Each trace has a main portion, at least one contact portion and a soldering portion. The shell surrounds the insulating housing, the at least one flexible printed circuit board, the at least one location block and the at least one elastic structure.

A plug connector includes: an insulative housing having a front mating end and a rear terminating end; a conductive module received in the insulative housing and exposed to the front mating end; a rod mounted to the insulative housing; a latch mounted to the insulative housing, the latch including a securing portion, a latching portion movable between a latched position and a released position, and an operating portion operable by the rod to move the latching portion to the released position; and a pulling tab connected to the rod, wherein the insulative housing includes a pair of grooves and the rod is slidable in the pair of grooves by the pulling tab to operate the operating portion of the latch to move the latching portion to the released position.

A plug connector includes a housing, a built-in circuit board partially located in the housing, and a cable electrically connected to the built-in circuit board. The housing includes a mating surface. The built-in circuit board includes a tongue plate and a number of conductive pads provided on the tongue plate. The housing includes an extension plate extending along a mating direction of the plug connector. The tongue plate and the extension plate protrude beyond the mating surface along the mating direction. The extension plate further protrudes beyond the tongue plate along the mating direction. Two lateral sides of the plug connector also respectively include slots extending through the mating surface. As a result, the insertion reliability of the plug connector of the present disclosure is improved.

A storage device for mobile provision of data at a technical installation includes a first connector for mechanical connection to a complementary mating connector, a second connector adjoining the first connector, and a housing enclosing the first connector and the second connector. The second connector can releasably receive a storage medium in a receptacle and can contact power and data connections of the storage medium when the storage medium is in the receptacle. The first connector is coupled to the second connector and, as a result of the coupling, the power and data connections of the storage medium can be contacted via the first connector. The first connector is a round plug connector with a connecting element having a circular cross-section or a heavy-duty connector.
