A chassis connector comprises a housing with an insertion opening (2) for a complementary cable connector, a contact carrier inserted in the housing (1) or formed therein, electrical or optical contacts fixed in the contact carrier, and a front plate which is arranged on the front side of the housing and which, together with an annular ridge extending along at least a part of the circumference of the insertion opening, forms the front end and the outer delimitation of the insertion opening. The front plate is made of a light-dispersing or light-conducting material and has at least one coupling surface for light from an external light source.

An illuminable electronic connector for facilitating connection with an electronic device has an illumination circuit with at least one illumination source, and an on-board power source for supplying power to the illumination source in at least some modes of operation. The connector may be configured to adjust brightness of the illumination source based on ambient light conditions using an on-board light sensor. A touch sensing input may also be provided to operate the illumination source. The connector may be further operable to enter a sleep mode when it enters a shipping phase of a supply chain and then to automatically activate the illumination source when it is unpackaged at the end of the shipping phase. An electronic device including an electronic visual interface, such as a mobile phone, may be also operated in a similar manner based on the phase of the device within a supply chain.

A plug-in power distribution unit is readily installable, removable, and replaceable by skilled or non-skilled persons. The units include one or more conventional electrical power plugs for engaging a conventional wall outlet or the like, and one or more proprietary electrical power connectors for engaging with a compatible connector of a modular electrical power system. Optionally, multiple circuits may be accommodated by the plug-in power distribution unit.

A cable includes a transmission line and a connector disposed on at least one end of the transmission line. The connector includes a housing to which the transmission line is connected and a terminal group that protrudes in a specific direction different from a direction parallel to a longest side of the housing. The terminal group is a terminal group for board-to-board connection.

The present disclosure discloses an anti-cross-lighting structure. The anti-cross-lighting structure includes a support frame, a plurality of light-guiding elements located beside the support frame, and a shielding piece mounted on the support frame. The light-guiding elements are arranged on a same side of the support frame and forms at least one group. The shielding piece wraps over the light-guiding elements. The shielding piece includes a number of middle blocking portions. Each middle blocking portion isolates the light-guiding elements which are adjacent to each other. The anti-cross-lighting structure of the present disclosure effectively avoids the cross-lighting phenomenon and also has a stable structure.

An electrical receptacle connector is mounted within a metallic cage for mating with a QSFP module received within the cage. The contacts of the cable receptacle connector are arranged with two groups, of which one are connected to the printed circuit board on which the cage is mounted, and the other are connected to the wires which are further connected to a board-mount receptacle connector mounted on another printed circuit board on which the CPU (Central Processing Unit) socket is mounted. Each board-mount receptacle connector corresponds to more than one cable receptacle connector.

A light guide receptacle for mounting a plurality of light guides in the interior of a housing part, with a plurality of light bulkheads, is configured to arrange the plurality of light guides, which are mechanically coupled to one another by means of a web, in each case in intermediate spaces between two light bulkheads of the plurality of light bulkheads and to optically decouple spatially adjacent light guides from one another by means of the respective light bulkhead, wherein the plurality of light bulkheads are integrated components of the housing part.

A device may include a frame, an optical connector coupled to an external surface of the frame, and an optical fiber comprising a bent section positioned external to an interior of the frame and connected to the optical connector.

A power distribution unit includes a housing; a plurality of power outlet modules accommodated in the housing, at least one of the power outlet modules including a socket having at least three electrical terminals which are configured to connect with one power cord plug of various types of power cord plugs, including a C14 plug and a C20 plug, and a sliding cover having a central opening, the sliding cover being slidable on an outer casing of the socket and engageable with the power cord plug when the power cord plug is completely inserted into the socket, thereby providing a secure connection between the socket and the power cord plug; and at least one power input module providing power to the power outlet modules.

An electrical connector, comprising a connector main body, a cable, a connecting housing, a limiting member, and a housing. The connector main body comprises a plugging side and a connecting side. One end of the cable is electrically connected with the connector main body, while the other end protrudes from the connecting side of the connector main body. The connecting housing is disposed at one side of the connector main body. The cable protrudes from one side of the connecting housing close to the connecting side. The limiting member is disposed at one side of the connecting housing close to the plugging side. The housing is disposed at one side of the connecting housing close to the plugging side. The plugging side of the connector main body is disposed in the housing. The connecting housing is assembled to the housing through the cooperation of the limiting member and the housing.
