A vehicular cable assembly that is easy to install and allows high transmission rates. This vehicular cable assembly includes at least two unshielded conductive signal lines that are untwisted around each other in a connection region in which the unshielded conductive signal lines are adapted to be connected to an external element and twisted around each other in a region next to the connection region. This vehicular cable assembly also includes a shielding assembly having at least one canal-like receptacle shielding part extending at least along the entire connection region and within which the unshielded conductive signal lines are disposed.

A female connector module to be connected to a male terminal module is provided with a tubular female shield member, a tubular housing arranged on an outer periphery of the female shield member, a front mask provided on a tip portion of the housing, and an electrically conductive rubber for conduction between a male shield member of the male terminal module and the female shield member. The front mask has an end wall for facing an end surface of the housing and a side wall for covering an outer peripheral surface of the tip portion. The end wall has a through hole into which the male terminal module being inserted. The electrically conductive rubber is so arranged inside the through hole as to contact an end surface of the female shield member while being held in contact with an outer peripheral surface of the male shield member.

A twinax cable assembly comprising twinax cable sets is described. The assembly includes a connector housing a portion of the twinax cable sets. The connector has a connector shell which houses a connector printed circuit board (PCB) that is connected to rows of twinax cables at a cable end section and a condensing cable tie bar through which the rows of twinax cables exit the connector shell in a vertical configuration. In the vertical configuration, the lateral direction of the twinax cables is generally perpendicular to a top or bottom surface of the connector printed circuit board.

The invention is a digital communications interface cable that can be used with a variety of devices, such as (but not limited to) radios and NATO connector capable radios. The cable includes a 5-pin or 6-pin connector attached at one end of a CAT6 cable. The cable further includes an RJ45 connector that interfaces to external sound card devices. A small ferrite core can be affixed to the interface cable at the second end to mitigate and prevent electromagnetic interference. Advantageously, the interface cable facilitates the transmission of digital communications from radios using a computer.

A coupler couples a first connector with a second connector wherein each of the connectors is coupled to exactly two electrical conductors. Each coupler can be utilized in a shielded (e.g., metal) or non-shielded (e.g. non-metal) form as appropriate to a specific application. Each coupler includes exactly one pair of pin contacts, preferably with a square or rectangular cross-section. Each end of the pin contacts includes four tapered faces that join at a flattened apex and are configured to be received by the tuning fork contact of the connector. The pair of pin contacts are offset from one another and cross one another within the coupler to maintain electrical polarity as electricity travels from the tuning fork contacts of a first connector to the pin contacts of the coupler and onward to the tuning fork contacts of a second connector.

A standard for near end crosstalk of a category 6A cable, including a registered jack 45 (RJ45), a clamp connected to the RJ45, a first attenuator and a second attenuator. The RJ45 includes a first signal twisted pair to transmit a first source signal and a second source signal, and a second signal twisted pair to transmit a third source signal and a fourth source signal. The clamp includes a first signal pair connector electrically connected to the first signal twisted pair, a second signal pair connector electrically connected to the second signal twisted pair, a first differential amplification circuit and a second differential amplification circuit. The first attenuator is electrically connected to the first signal pair connector. The second attenuator is electrically connected to the second signal pair connector. The second attenuator and the first attenuator are configured to detect the near end crosstalk.

A connector assembly in which ground paths between cables and a paddle card are formed and of which the size can be reduced is provided. A connector assembly includes a ground member including a plurality of partitioning members made of metal, each of which has a U-shape, and a metal plate to which the partitioning members are fixed. The ground member is configured such that the partitioning members are arranged at a pitch twice a predetermined pitch in a width direction of the connector assembly, so that partition walls of the partitioning members are arranged at the predetermined pitch in the width direction of the connector assembly. The ground shields are electrically connected to the ground member in a state where ground shields exposed from insulating films of the cables are disposed between the partition walls.

An angled connector assembly includes a connector housing defining an angle, at least two contact terminals configured to receive stripped conductors of a cable, and a cable bending control feature comprising a separate filler insert receivable within the connector housing. The filler insert engages an internal cavity of the housing to support and guide the cable, limiting bending stresses at the interface between the cable and terminals. By providing strain relief and a controlled bend radius, the assembly protects wire terminations against fatigue and damage, thereby enhancing the reliability of electrical connections in angularly oriented cable installations.

This disclosure relates to a cable with shielded cable strain relief including at least one conductor having a separate insulation jacket, a braided shielding layer disposed around the insulation jacket, and an outer jacket. The shielded cable strain relief incorporates an inner ferrule including a first inner crimping member. At a cable end, the outer jacket is removed over a length to enable connection of the cable to a connector assembly. The first inner crimping member is crimped on and in direct contact with the braided shielding layer at the cable end adjacent the outer jacket termination. The braided shielding layer is folded back over the inner ferrule and at least a portion of the outer jacket.

An electrical connector for automotive applications includes a housing, at least one signal conductor and at least one ground conductor. The at least one signal conductor is arranged at least in part within the housing and has a first end projecting from the housing, being electrically insulated from the housing. The at least one ground conductor is arranged at least in part within the housing and has a first end projecting from the housing, being in electrical contact with the housing. The connector provides insulated signal paths and a grounding connection via the housing.
