This shield connector is provided with an inner conductor (15), a dielectric body (19) that accommodates the inner conductor (15), and an outer conductor (18) that encloses the dielectric body (19). The dielectric body (19) comprises a stopper section (34) that abuts the outer conductor (18) and stops movement of the dielectric body (19) along a wall surface of the outer conductor (18). Positional offset of the dielectric body (19) with respect to the outer conductor (18) can be prevented due to the stopper section (34) abutting the outer conductor (18).

A contact includes a cantilever beam and a protection tab. The cantilever beam extends from a beam connected end to a beam free end along an insertion direction. The protection tab extends from a tab connected end to a tab free end in a direction opposite to the insertion direction. The tab free end is positioned adjacent to the beam free end.

A connector includes an insulator, a plurality of pairs of terminals provided on the insulator, and a resistance element. The plurality of pairs of terminals include at least one pair of cable terminals electrically connected with a cable and at least one pair of vacant terminals that are unused. The resistance element is electrically connected between each pair of vacant terminals.

A shield connector is provided with a housing including a module accommodation chamber and a terminal module to be inserted into the module accommodation chamber from behind the housing. The terminal module is formed such that an inner conductor is surrounded by a dielectric and the dielectric is surrounded by an outer conductor. The outer conductor includes a projecting portion projecting from a position rearward of a front end of the outer conductor on an outer surface of the outer conductor. An inner wall surface constituting the module accommodation chamber has a facing inner surface facing the outer surface formed with the projecting portion. The facing inner surface is formed with a projection-like backlash eliminating portion. The projecting portion is arranged behind the backlash eliminating portion with the terminal module inserted in the module accommodation chamber.

A wire harness including: a first wire that is electrically connectable to a first connector installed in a vehicle; a second wire that is electrically connected to the first wire; a third wire that is electrically connected to the first wire; a connection where the first wire, the second wire, and the third wire are electrically connected to each other; a tubular first shield that surrounds an outer periphery of the connection and an outer periphery of the first wire; and a tubular second shield that surrounds an outer periphery of a portion of the first shield and an outer periphery of the second wire, the portion of the first shield surrounding the outer periphery of the connection.

A method and apparatus for providing a tracer function for networked cable systems used for data or power transmission. A self contained and self powered indicator circuit is described that enables tracing the location of both ends of a networked cable.

A terminal module disclosed by this specification is provided with a shielded cable including two coated wires, a conductive shield portion for covering outer peripheries of the two coated wires and a sheath portion for covering an outer periphery of the shield portion, inner conductors to be connected to the coated wires, an insulating terminal accommodating member for accommodating end parts of the coated wires together with the inner conductors, and an outer conductor for accommodating the terminal accommodating member. An axis center β of a shield-side pull-out portion for pulling out the coated wires in the shield portion is radially shifted with respect to axis centers α of inner conductor-side pull-out portions for pulling out the coated wires in the inner conductors. A wire insertion path into which linking portions are insertable is formed in a lower wall of the terminal accommodating member.

A cable connector assembly includes a contact holder holding first and second contacts in contact channels terminated to ends of conductors of a cable. The contacts have mating ends forward of the front of the contact holder. The cable connector assembly includes a contact shield coupled to the contact holder having a base and a shroud. The base surrounds a base chamber that receives an end of the cable and the contact holder and provides electrical shielding at first and second interfaces. The shroud surrounds a shroud chamber that receives the mating ends of the first and second contacts to provide electrical shielding along the mating ends of the first and second contacts.

A network communication device includes communication circuitry configured to communicate signals over a network cable, and a connector configured to connect to the network cable. The connector includes one or more signal terminals, an inner shield connection and an outer shield connection. The one or more signal terminals are configured to connect to one or more signal conductors of the network cable for communicating the signals. The inner shield connection surrounds the one or more signal terminals and is connected to a circuit ground of the communication circuitry. The outer shield connection surrounds the inner shield connection and is connected to an additional ground of the network communication device, the additional ground being different from the circuit ground.

A crimp ferrule includes an assembly portion assembled on a non-circular internal cross section of a multi-core cable and a diameter compensation portion forming a circular external cross section of the crimp ferrule on the multi-core cable. The assembly portion and the diameter compensation portion are arranged successively in an axial direction of the crimp ferrule.
