A Peripheral Component Interconnect Express/Serial Attached SCSI (PSAS) female connector includes a frame member, a terminal member, and a cover member; the frame member including a terminal groove disposed in the frame member and a tilt portion disposed in the terminal groove adjacent to a plug end; the terminal member inserted in the frame member and including a Serial Advanced Technology Attachment (SATA) 7 pin terminal, a Serial Attached SCSI (SAS) 40 pin terminal, a 15 Pin signal terminal, a 6 Pin terminal, and a 4 Pin terminal. When the PSAS female connector is engaged with the male connector, the SATA 7 Pin terminal and the SAS 40 Pin terminal are pressed by a terminal of the male connector to be bent toward an outer lateral side of the terminal groove to contact the elastic plate of the cover member. The present invention effectively improves the cross interference during high speed transmission, thereby achieving the Generation 5 performance requirement.

A cable connector includes a number of cables and an electrical connector. Each cable includes a core wire, an insulating layer wrapped on the core wire and a shielding layer wrapped on the insulating layer. The electrical connector includes an insulating body, a number of conductive terminals and a shielding shell. Each conductive terminal includes a contact portion for mating with a mating connector and a tail portion connected with the core wire. The cable connector further includes a ground shield mounted to the cables. The ground shield is connected with the shielding layers of the cables, and the ground shield is connected with the shielding shell. Compared with the prior art, the present disclosure improves the shielding performance of the cable connector by providing connecting the ground shield, the shielding layers and the shielding shell together.

A connector has a plug housing and a termination cap housing assembly pivotably attached to the plug housing. The termination cap housing assembly has a pair of contacts secured thereto such that pivoting the termination cap housing assembly to the plug housing terminates the contacts to a pair of wires inserted into the plug housing.

An electrical connector for grounding a multicore cable having a shield includes a spring terminal engaging the shield and an insulation displacement connection (IDC) terminal terminating a ground wire. The shield is grounded through the electrical connector.

An industrial connector has a cylindrical metal shield with at least one slot in the rear of the shield for engaging a cable braid. In one embodiment, the shield also has a cable relief cut out of the rear opposite the at least one slot.

A connector has a plug housing and a termination cap housing assembly pivotably attached to the plug housing. The termination cap housing assembly has a pair of contacts secured thereto such that pivoting the termination cap housing assembly to the plug housing terminates the contacts to a pair of wires inserted into the plug housing.

A cable retainer insert for a multi-strand cable includes a cable contact portion and a plurality of cable receptacles in the cable contact portion circumferentially spaced from each other. Each of the cable receptacles receives a strand of the multi-strand cable. Each of the cable receptacles has a cable strand insertion opening at a radially outward end and a bottom at an opposite radially inward end. A circle inscribed in each of the cable receptacles and touching the bottom of the cable receptacle extends radially outward beyond the cable strand insertion opening.

A Peripheral Component Interconnect Express/Serial Attached SCSI (PSAS) female connector includes a frame member, a terminal member, and a cover member; the frame member including a terminal groove disposed in the frame member and a tilt portion disposed in the terminal groove adjacent to a plug end; the terminal member inserted in the frame member and including a Serial Advanced Technology Attachment (SATA) 7 pin terminal, a Serial Attached SCSI (SAS) 40 pin terminal, a 15 Pin signal terminal, a 6 Pin terminal, and a 4 Pin terminal. When the PSAS female connector is engaged with the male connector, the SATA 7 Pin terminal and the SAS 40 Pin terminal are pressed by a terminal of the male connector to be bent toward an outer lateral side of the terminal groove to contact the elastic plate of the cover member. The present invention effectively improves the cross interference during high speed transmission, thereby achieving the Generation 5 performance requirement.

An electric connector unit comprises a connector and a cable connected thereto. The connector includes a terminal housing having an opening, and a shell attached to the terminal housing and having a shield fixation portion inserted into the opening. The cable comprises an inner cable bundle having a plurality of inner cables, and a cable shield surrounding the inner cable bundle. At least a portion of the cable shield is inserted into the opening and electrically connected to the shield fixation portion within the opening.

A shielded in-line connector includes conductive first and second body portions, each with a securement feature, as well as conductive first and second clips. The first and second body portions are secured to one another to define an unshielded connector-receiving cavity as well as first and second shielded cable openings; each of the first and second shielded cable openings being proximate the respective clip securement feature. Each of the clip securement features includes a channel supportive of a respective shielded cable extending from each of the first and second shielded cable openings; each of the shielded cables having an exposed shield. The first and second clips are adjustably secured to a respective one of the first and second securement features to position the respective clip in direct contact with the exposed shield of the respective shielded cable.
