A connector with a grommet includes a housing, a grommet, and a sensing member. A panel hooking portion, a flange, and a locking projection are formed on an outside of the housing. The sensing member includes a part received in a receiving part of the grommet and senses a locked state of the locking projection. The housing is provided with a flexible arm. The flexible arm is provided with the locking projection. The sensing member moves between the locking surface of the locking projection and a wall of the receiving part. When the locking projection is locked to the panel, the sensing member is pushed out by the panel in an anti-locking direction by a thickness of the panel.

A telecommunications panel has various features for removably mounting patching devices to the panel. The telecommunications panel includes mounting flanges and ramp elements for facilitating mounting and removal of patching devices. The ramp element is associated with a receptacle opening of the panel and configured to contact a flexible latch of the patching device and depress the flexible latch as the patching device is received in the receptacle opening.

A plug-in connection (1), comprising an electrical connector (2) and a mating electrical connector (3), which can be plugged together with the electrical connector, the electrical connector (2) having a housing, which has a flange (5) and a frame (7), the frame comprising at least one contact chamber (8), in which a contact partner (9) is arranged, the mating electrical connector (3) having a housing and a frame (12), the frame comprising a contact chamber (13), in which at least one contact partner (14) is arranged, characterized in that each contact partner (14) of the mating electrical connector (3) is surrounded by a casing (15), which surrounds the contact partner (14) except from the insertion region for an associated contact partner (9) of the electrical connector (2).

A bidirectionally installable intermediate modular adapter for a rack mounted panel is provided, including a front face, an opposing rear face, a first side surface and opposing second side surface each comprising a spring tab latch and spring tab latch receiver. The spring tab latch comprises a first ramp positioned towards the front face and a second ramp positioned towards the opposing rear face, a groove defined at least in part by the first ramp and second ramp, a first latch arm positioned towards the front face, a second latch arm positioned towards the opposing rear face, a spring tab latch connector positioned towards the spring tab receiver, and a compression spring. At least one opening extends from the front face through the body to the opposing rear face and an upper surface comprises a groove extending at least partially lengthwise across the upper surface.

A connector includes an outer housing, an inner housing fitted to the outer housing, and a detection member assembled to the outer housing and restricted from being separated in a removal direction. The detection member has a flexible lock arm and a member-side protrusion formed on a free end side of the lock arm and facing an outer-side protrusion in the removal direction in an assembled state. When a locking arm gets over the outer-side protrusion and is locked to the outer-side protrusion, the locking arm moves in an insertion direction while being elastically deformed, and elastically returns after getting over the outer-side protrusion to press the member-side protrusion outward an inner housing accommodating space, so that the lock arm allows the outer-side protrusion and the member-side protrusion to be in a non-facing state in the insertion/removal direction, and allows the detection member to be separated in the removal direction.

Various embodiments disclosed herein are directed to a Network system including: a connector comprising a housing comprising a groove running widthwise on a surface of the housing; and a push-pull tab comprising a complementary groove, wherein the push-pull tab is detachably connected to the housing; and a receiver device comprising one or more ports for receiving the connector, the one or more ports having an interchangeable anchor device including a first portion and a second portion; wherein the groove is configured to receive the first portion of the interchangeable anchor device when the connector is inserted into the receiving element, and wherein the complimentary groove is configured to receive the second portion of the interchangeable anchor device when the connector is inserted into the receiving element, the push-pull tab being configured to disengage the second portion of the interchangeable anchor device from the complementary groove when the push-pull tab is moved in a direction away from the connector, thereby disengaging the first portion of the interchangeable anchor device from the grove of the connector. Other aspects are described and claimed.

An electrical receptacle unit with locking feature includes a receptacle adapted to be electrically connected to a source of electricity. The receptacle includes an electrical fitting having electrical contacts contained therein and/or extending therefrom, a socket surrounding the electrical fitting, and a plate disposed at a front of the socket. The electrical receptacle unit further includes a locking bracket that includes a central portion having first and second ends, a lock tab extending from a side of the central portion, and a pair of support arms, each extending forwardly from a respective one of the first and second ends. The locking bracket is pivotably secured to the plate, with at least a portion of each support arm positioned within a respective notched area of the plate. The locking bracket is pivotable relative to the plate between a first position, whereby a plug electrically seated within the socket is unobstructed, and a second position, whereby the plug electrically seated within the socket is obstructed from removal by the lock tab.

A telecommunications panel has various features for removably mounting patching devices to the panel. The telecommunications panel includes mounting flanges and ramp elements for facilitating mounting and removal of patching devices. The ramp element is associated with a receptacle opening of the panel and configured to contact a flexible latch of the patching device and depress the flexible latch as the patching device is received in the receptacle opening.

A wire harness includes a connector, a grommet assembled to the connector and being in close contact with one opening edge portion of an attachment hole of a panel, and a plurality of electric wires that are inserted into the grommet. The connector includes terminal fittings provided at end portions of the plurality of electric wires, a connector housing that accommodates the terminal fittings, and an inner member having an annular plate-shaped flange disposed outside the connector housing. The grommet includes a flange assembly portion that is assembled to the flange, and an electric wire accommodating dome portion that accommodates drawn-out portions of the plurality of electric wires being drawn out from the connector housing. The inner member includes two deformation preventing walls that prevent the electric wire accommodating dome portion from being deformed inward.

A stabilizer and electrical connector maintains a stable and secure electrical connection between an electric lighting module lamp support and a signage frame. The connector is an integral, unitary body having a plate shaped base section with dual lateral tension clips extending down from the base section and an adhesive member which is attached to the bottom surface of the base section. The connector uses a “stick and hold” method to lock itself to the face of a signage frame. The integral body also has a columnar support section having a through channel extending up from the base section to accept an electric lighting module lamp support. An electrical connector section having a front facing cavity containing front facing electrical plugs and at least one lateral cavity containing laterally facing electric plugs also forms a part of the connector's integral body.
