A shunt device is used to be mated with an adapter socket of a connector configured on a circuit board to shunt electric current of the connector. The shunt device includes an insulating housing and a first electric terminal. The insulating housing has a bottom surface. The first electric terminal is fixed on the insulating housing. The first electric terminal has a first contact portion and a first leg that extends out of the insulating housing from the first contact portion, so as to provide a first cable connection surface for being connected to at least one wire cable. The first contact portion is exposed from the bottom surface and has a contact surface that is parallel to the bottom surface, so as to abut against a shunt contact surface of the adapter socket.

An electrical connector assembly having a first electrical connector or header including a base and a shroud extending therefrom. The shroud defines a first opening arranged opposite the base and a second lateral opening defined between two ends thereof. A second or mating connector of the assembly includes a mating end received within the first opening of the shroud in an insertion direction. A body of the second electrical connector is received within the second lateral opening of the shroud and includes a pair of covers or hoods with channels for receiving and mechanically joining the two ends of the shroud.

The invention relates to a plug connection for transmitting electrical energy by releasable contact, said plug connection comprising at least one plug contact pin and at least one contact socket, the at least one contact socket being received in a plug connector housing and the plug connector housing interacting with a slider which is movable relative thereto, so that the plug connection partners are housed in an inserted and secondarily locked contacting position. At least one detent and support geometry is integrated into the plug contact pin and interacts with the plug connector housing, so that the contacting partners are disconnected from one another when the positions thereof relative to one another are outside the secondary locking position.

An electric connector comprises a male terminal and a female terminal. The male terminal comprises a first connecting member, a first elastic member, a first wire opening, and a first connecting opening. The first elastic member comprises a first elastic arm extending towards the first connecting member and being configured to be inserted through the first wire opening, and the first connecting member is configured to be inserted through the first connecting opening. The female terminal comprises a second connecting member, a second elastic member, a second wire opening, and a second connecting opening. The second elastic member comprises a second elastic arm extending towards the second connecting member and being configured to be inserted though the second wire opening, and the second connecting member is configured to extend through the second connecting opening. The first connecting member and the second connecting member are in electrical contact with each other.

A configuration ensuring a connector to be fixed to a connector housing with high water-tightness, free of damaging or breaking due to external force, and achieving high shielding performance and reliability is provided. The connector includes a terminal that is conductive, an intermediate insulating member that contains the terminal, and an outer conductor that is conductive and contains the intermediate insulating member. The connector housing includes an outer conductor holding part provided with an outer conductor insertion hole through which the outer conductor is inserted and a front outer conductor containing cavity that is formed on a front side of the outer conductor holding part and has a larger cross-sectional area than the outer conductor insertion hole. The connector is fixed to the connector housing with a tab welded to a front surface of the outer conductor holding part, the tab being integrally formed with the outer conductor, and with a potting material filled in a portion in the front outer conductor containing cavity close to the front surface of the outer conductor holding part.

Connector assemblies including a first subassembly having a recessed portion and a pair of locator tracks and a second subassembly having a pair of locator projections, vacuum assemblies including these connector assemblies, and methods of using the same are provided herein.

The present invention relates to a terminal (1) with a spring force terminal connection (2) with at least one conductor terminal point (K), an insulating material housing (6), a conductor introduction channel (60), and a release lever (5). The release lever (5) is mounted in the insulating material housing (6) pivotably about a pivot axis (A) extending transverse to a conductor introduction direction (E) of an electric conductor between an idle position with closed conductor terminal point (K) and an actuating position with opened conductor terminal point (K). The release lever (5) has two lever arm portions (50) which are spaced apart from one another and which are immersed on both sides of the conductor introduction channel (60) at least partially into the insulating material housing (6). The lever arm portions (50) have in each case a guide portion (53) which face one another and form between them at least a part of the conductor introduction channel (60). The guide portions (53) in the idle position and/or in the actuating position, as seen in the conductor introduction direction, run toward the conductor terminal point (K) in a manner which narrows the conductor introduction channel (60).

A board-to-board connector assembly includes first and second connector assemblies and a connector interconnect between the first and second connector assemblies. Each connector assembly includes an outer shell and a connector received in a cavity of the outer shell. The connector has a connector body holding contacts in a card slot, which receives a circuit card edge of an add-in card. The outer shell has an outer board guide configured to engage the add-in card and guide mating of the outer shell with the add-in card. The outer shell has a latch configured to latchably engage the add-in card to secure the connector to the add-in card. The connector interposer electrically interconnects the contacts of the connector assemblies to electrically connect the add-in cards.

A modular plug connector having a holding frame having side walls which laterally delimit a receiving space, and at least one plug connector module which can be introduced into the receiving space. The side walls have a plurality of holding-frame-side guide elements and the at least one plug connector module has at least one plug-connector-module-side guide element. The at least one plug-connector-module-side guide element can be plugged into the holding-frame-side guide elements such that the plug connector module is positioned in the receiving space. The side walls have a latching structure and the plug connector module has at least one latching tongue which engages into the latching structure. The at least one plug connector module has at least one functional element with which functional element a functional contact to a functional element of a plug connector module of another plug connector can be established.

Each of a first connector and a second connector of a connector assembly includes at least two high frequency signal terminals. When viewed from a first direction, each periphery of the high frequency signal terminals is surrounded by an outer shell and an inner shell. The outer shell has a substantially quadrilateral shape. The high frequency signal terminals, the outer shells surrounding peripheries of the high frequency signal terminals, and the inner shells, which are disposed on a second symmetry axis form a linearly symmetrical shape with the second symmetry axis as a center line of the outer shells along a second direction orthogonal to the first direction in which the high frequency signal terminals are arranged.
