An electronic device according to an embodiment of the present invention includes a processor and a socket connector, wherein the socket connector includes: a housing including a first opening, a second opening, and an inner space between the first opening and the second opening; and a connection unit coupled to the first opening, wherein the connection unit has a top surface on which one or more first terminals electrically connected to the processor are disposed, and a bottom surface on which one or more second terminals electrically connected to the processor are disposed, and includes a first plate formed of a non-conductive member in at least a portion of an area of the inner space, and a second plate disposed between at least a portion of the top surface and at least a portion of the bottom surface, wherein the second plate has a portion protruding from the one or more first terminals or the one or more second terminals in the direction of the second opening into which a header connector can be inserted, and at least a portion of the protruding portion can be bent in the direction of at least one of the top surface or the bottom surface. Various other embodiments are possible.

An adaptor assembly for an OCP 2.0 form factor card for installation in a server having a side slot to accommodate OCP 3.0 form factor cards is disclosed. The adaptor assembly has an adaptor board allowing the attachment of the OCP 2.0 form factor. The adaptor board includes a socket mateable with a connector on the OCP 2.0 form factor and an edge connector mateable with a socket on the server. The assembly includes an adaptor bracket attachable to the adaptor board. The adaptor bracket has a wall that covers the side slot of the server when the adaptor assembly is inserted through the side slot.

Examples are disclosed that relate to connector systems, magnetic plug assemblies and methods for mating a magnetic plug assembly with a plurality of receptacles. In one example, a magnetic plug assembly comprises a moveable member comprising an aperture and one or more magnets. A plug tip extends through the aperture, and one or more biasing elements urge the moveable member and the one or more magnets toward a distal end of the plug tip, with the moveable member being moveable relative to the plug tip.

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.

An electrical connector includes multiple terminals fixed to an insulating body. Each terminal has a contact portion electrically connected with a mating connector, and a conducting portion located behind the contact portion. The conducting portion extends out of the insulating body and is electrically connected with a circuit board. A grounding shell wraps outside the insulating body. A shielding shell rotates relative to the insulating body between a closed position and an open position. A first end of the shielding shell is electrically connected with the grounding shell. When the shielding shell is at the closed position, a second end of the shielding shell is electrically connected with at least one grounding medium electrically connected with the circuit board. When the shielding shell is at the open position, an observation window is formed between the shielding shell and the grounding medium to expose the conducting portions of the terminals.

The present invention may comprise: a body including a first plate facing a first direction, a second plate facing a second direction opposite to the first direction, and at least one printed circuit board; and at least one receptacle disposed at the body to be connected to an external connector, wherein the receptacle comprises: a receptacle body which is connected onto the printed circuit board; a receptacle shell to which the external connector is connected and which is slidable in the receptacle body in a third direction vertically facing each of the first and second directions; a guide device which guides the sliding movement of the receptacle shell; a molded member which is coupled to the receptacle shell and configures a connection position of the external connector; and a connection structure which electrically connects the receptacle shell and the receptacle body.

A card, e.g. a printed circuit board (PCB), has one or more conductive layers and one or more non-conductive layers disposed and alternating upon one another to form a stack. One or more of the conductive layers has one or more wiring elements within the conductive layer. The PCB/card has one or more card edges. The PCB also has a plurality of dual-level pad structures on each of one or more of the card edges. The dual-level pad structures each have an upper level, a lower level, and two or more walls. The lower level is a conductive pad with conductive surface. At least one of the conductive pads electrically connects to one or more of the wiring elements and/or one or more vias. In each of the dual-level pad structures, the walls and upper level may be made of an electrically non-conductive, insulating, or dielectric material or may be covered with a conductive material that electrically connects to conductive surface. There are different non-limiting embodiments of the structures and methods of making the structures.

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.

A connector assembly including a plurality of female connectors respectively having a predetermined number of pins, and at least one male connector having a plug terminal contacting the pin and coupled with the plurality of female connectors. The plurality of female connectors are provided to be assembled with each other along one direction.

Embodiments of the present disclosure provide a connector, an electronic device and an open pluggable specification (OPS) device. The connector includes a plurality of first pins and a plurality of second pins. A pair of adjacent first pins are configured to transmit a first signal. The plurality of the second pins are arranged on both sides of the pair of the first pins. The plurality of the second pins are configured to be grounded or transmit a second signal. A transmission rate of the first signal is greater than that of the second signal.
