A backplane connector includes a housing and a number of terminal modules assembled to the housing. The housing includes a base, a first side wall and a second side wall. The base, the first side wall and the second side wall jointly form a receiving space. The terminal module includes a first signal terminal and a second signal terminal. The housing includes a number of insulating protrusions integrally extending from the base. The insulating protrusions extend into the receiving space. The terminal modules are assembled in the insulating protrusions. Compared with the prior art, the insulating protrusions of the present disclosure is integrally formed with the base, thereby improving the structural strength of the housing and improving the durability of the backplane connector.

A tool string electrical transmission line connector comprising a cylinder adapted for mounting within a bore adjacent to a shoulder within the bore of a downhole tool. The cylinder comprising an inside axial side wall spaced apart from an outside axial side wall joining top and bottom surfaces. The connector further comprises an axial channel open to the outside axial side wall intersecting the bottom surface and a housing open to the outside axial side wall. The housing being open to the top surface. An electrical transmission line connector is disposed within the housing. An electrical transmission line is disposed within the axial channel and connected within the housing to an adjacent electrical transmission device. The axial channel further comprises one or more tab closures. The tab closures may comprise a clamp. When fitted into the bore, the tabs close around a cable residing within the channel.

A backplane connector includes a housing and a number of terminal modules. Each terminal module includes a number of conductive terminals, a metal shield surrounding member, a first metal shield and a second metal shield. The conductive terminal includes a mating portion and a tail portion. The conductive terminals include a first signal terminal and a second signal terminal. The metal shield surrounding member surrounds the mating portions of the first signal terminal and the second signal terminal. The first metal shield and the second metal shield are in contact with the metal shield surrounding member. As a result, the shielding area is increased and the shielding effect is improved.
