The disclosure relates to a holding frame, into which plug connector modules can be inserted, wherein the holder frame comprises or consists of two halves which can be connected to each other, a first half and a second half, wherein the halves each have a lateral surface and a cover surface, wherein the holding frame has at least one first blocking element, via which the halves can be fixed in a closed position, wherein the at least one blocking element is movably held on the first half or on the second half. The blocking element is held on the first half or on the second half in a displaceable or rotatable or pivotable manner.

A holding frame for a plug-type connector is intended to have good heat resistance and a high level of mechanical robustness and, when installed in a metallic plug-type connector housing, enable protective grounding while at the same time being convenient to use, in particular during the replacement of individual modules. To this end, it is proposed to manufacture the holding frame at least partially from spring-elastic sheet metal. For this purpose, the holding frame can have a basic portion and a deformation portion, which are formed from different materials. The basic portion is used for fixing an accommodated module in a plane. The deformation portion can assume an insertion state and a holding state, wherein the insertion state permits insertion of at least one module into the holding frame in a direction transverse to the plane and an accommodated module is fixed in the holding state.

A cable connector clocking assembly for clocking and torqueing a cable connector. In one example, the clocking assembly has a socket adapter sub-assembly configured to be mounted in an adapter holder sub-assembly. The socket adapter sub-assembly includes a socket portion and an adapter portion having a generally cylindrical body portion connected to the socket portion. The adapter portion also has at least one indicium configured to indicate a clock angle of a cable connector when the cable connector is connected to the socket portion. The clocking assembly also includes an adapter holder sub-assembly comprising a clamp portion and a face portion having a plurality of indicia representative of different clock angles. The clamp portion has an unclamped configuration, wherein the socket sub-assembly can be rotated to a desired clock angle, and a clamped configuration, wherein the socket sub-assembly is securely retained in the clamp portion at the desired clock angle.

Methods and systems for manufacturing a swallowable sensor device are disclosed. Such a method includes mechanically coupling a plurality of internal components, wherein the plurality of internal components includes a printed circuit board having a plurality of projections extending radially outward. A cavity is filled with a potting material, and the mechanically coupled components are inserted into the cavity. The cavity may be pre-filled with the potting material, or may be filled after the mechanically coupled components have been inserted therein. A distal end of each projection abuts against a wall of the cavity thereby preventing the potting material from covering each distal end. The cavity is sealed with a cap causing the potting material to harden within the sealed cavity to form a housing of the swallowable sensor device, wherein the distal end of each projection is exposed to an external environment of the swallowable sensor device.

A method and system for installing and removing a row of cables from a cable array is provided. The method includes providing an installation tool having a first body with a plurality of arms extending from one side. The plurality of arms being configured to receive a cable connector body, the plurality of arms including at least one first projection extending from one of the plurality of arms. The installation tool is moved onto a row of cables held coupled together by a bracket, each of the cables in the row of cables having a cable connector body. The connector bodies are engaged into receptacles and the bracket is moved with the at least one first projection.
