A shield connector is formed such that an electrical wire shield portion at an end of an electrical shield wire is removed to expose a plurality of single shield wires; connection terminals are each connected to the conductor at an end of each exposed single shield wire; the connection terminals are held in an inner housing; the inner housing and the single shield wires are sheathed with a shield shell; and an attachment piece integrated with the shield shell is fixedly attached to an end of the electrical shield wire. The shield shell is provided with a connector shield member, and the connector shield member is electrically connected to single wire shield portions of the exposed single shield wires.

An antenna feeding network for a multi-radiator antenna, the antenna feeding network comprising at least two coaxial lines, wherein each coaxial line comprises an elongated central inner conductor and an elongated outer conductor surrounding the central inner conductor. At least one connector device is configured to interconnect at least a first inner conductor and a second inner conductor of the central inner conductors. The connector device comprises at least one engaging portion, each being configured to engage with at least one corresponding surface portion formed on the envelope surface of the first or second inner conductor. The envelope surface is furthermore provided with at least one recess provided adjacent at least one surface portion.

A connector system, method and apparatus for an EMI enclosure such as a Gauss/Faraday cage or chamber. The connector system, method and/or apparatus includes one or more individual conductors located within the EMI enclosure to eliminate EMI/E&H field effects with respect to applications such as a small form factor cable applications, high density cable applications, and a high speed (e.g., greater than 1 Gbps) multiconductor copper-based cable applications. This approach therefore isolates individual or multiple cable signals (e.g., single conductors) within individual Gaussian/Faraday cages to eliminate EMI/E&H field effects for small form factor, high density, high speed (e.g., >1 Gbps) multiconductor copper based cable applications.

The shield connector (C1) includes terminals (10) having at least one terminal to be shielded, an insulating housing (20), and a shielding sheet (30) to be mounted on the terminal to be shielded to cover a sheet mounting surface set for at least a part of a surface of the terminal to be shielded excluding a part to be brought into contact with a mating terminal. The shielding sheet (30) includes an insulating layer (32) and a conductive layer (34), is mounted on the terminal to be shielded with the insulating layer (32) held in close contact with the sheet mounting surface, and has flexibility to be laid in conformity with an outer shape of the sheet mounting surface. The terminal to be shielded (10) is accommodated in a terminal accommodating portion (22) of the housing (20) with the sheet mounting surface covered by the shielding sheet (30).

A shield terminal (12) includes inner conductors (14) having tabs (16) projecting forward from bodies (15), a dielectric (21) formed with conductor accommodation chambers (36) inside and configured to hold the inner conductors (14) with the bodies (15) accommodated in the conductor accommodation chambers (36), an outer conductor (37) for surrounding the dielectric (21) and the tabs (16), and walls (23, 31 and 32) constituting the conductor accommodation chambers (36) and formed with air chambers (43 to 50). Focusing on the fact that air has a lower dielectric constant than synthetic resin, the air chambers (43 to 50) are formed in the walls (23, 31 and 32) constituting the conductor accommodation chambers (36). This enables an impedance to be enhanced even if the dielectric (21) is made of a material having high rigidity.

A shield terminal (12) includes a dielectric (22) made of synthetic resin and formed with conductor accommodation chambers (39) inside, inner conductors (15) accommodated in the conductor accommodation chambers (39), an outer conductor (14) for surrounding the dielectric (22), and wall portions (24, 35) constituting the conductor accommodation chambers (39) and formed with air chambers (42, 43, 45 and 46). Focusing on the fact that air has a lower dielectric constant than synthetic resin, the air chambers (42, 43, 45 and 46) are formed in the wall portions (24, 35) constituting the conductor accommodation chambers (39). This enables an impedance to be enhanced even if the dielectric (22) is made of a material having high rigidity.

An electrical connector is revealed that has unique useful characteristics. A sheet metal fork supplies the stored energy that imparts a force to a second membera plunger that makes contact with the mating circuit. The plunger can be configured to increase or decrease the force or deflection and can be designed with various connection ends with different contact characteristics.

An electrical cable connector includes an insulative housing, a plurality of terminals disposed in the housing, a mating cavity formed in the housing and forwardly communicating with an exterior. The terminal includes a front contacting section and a rear connecting section with an extension section therebewteen in a front-to-back direction. The front contacting section is exposed in the mating cavity, and the rear connecting section includes a soldering region and a pair of securing structure formed on two sides of the soldering region and secured to the housing for retaining the terminal in position with regard to the housing.

A wire cable assembly, such as those used in electric or hybrid electric vehicles, having a plurality of shielded wire cables spliced together. The center conductors are joined together and enclosed in an inner insulator. The shield conductors of the cable are joined by an electrically conductive sleeve enclosing the inner insulator and attached to the shield conductors of the shielded wire cables. The sleeve separates the outer insulating layers of the shielded wire cables. The sleeve is encased by an outer insulator that is sealed to the outer insulating layers of the shielded wire cables. A method of splicing shielded wire cables together is also presented.

A receptacle connection assembly includes a printed circuit board defining two spaced slots in a front edge portion with a mating tongue formed therebetween, a plurality of pads formed on two opposite surfaces of the mating tongue in a diagonally symmetrical manner for a flippable usage and a metallic shield including a tubular capsular portion assembled to the PCB to enclose the mating tongue.
