A joint connector 10 for connecting a plurality of electric wires 11 is provided with: a lower housing 30; an upper cover 60 assembled onto the lower housing 30; a plurality of terminals 12 respectively connected to front ends of the plurality of electric wires 11 in an extending direction thereof; and a busbar 50 connected to the plurality of terminals 12. The busbar 50 disposed on the lower housing 30 has a plurality of tabs 52. Each of the plurality of terminals 12 disposed on the lower housing 30 includes: a tube portion 17 into which a corresponding one of the plurality of tabs 52 is inserted; pinching portions 18A, 18B extending in the extending direction and pinching one of the plurality of electric wires 11; and a slide portion 16 disposed on the outside of the pinching portions 18A, 18B and moveable along the extending direction. The slide portion 16 includes pressing portions 25A, 25B which, in a state in which one of the plurality of electric wires 11 is pinched between the pinching portions 18A, 18B, presses the pinching portions 18A, 18B toward the electric wire 11. A terminal holding portion 63 protruding downward from the upper cover 60 engages with the terminals 12.

Devices, assemblies and methods for fixing and grounding telecommunications cables entering telecommunications closures. A plurality of cable fixation units are independently conductively coupled to components of a grounding assembly with conductive couplers. The conductive couplers are attached to a grounding bar that is fixed relative to the cable fixation units.

A connector includes a female housing and a male housing. An arm portion of the female housing engages with an engagement projection of the male housing. In a state where the engagement projection is fitted to an opening of the arm portion, a gap for insertion of a jig exists in the opening at a lateral side of the engagement projection. A groove-shaped release operation portion is formed on the male housing at a lateral side of the engagement projection. An inclined surface is formed at a rear end of the release operation portion, and a wall portion is formed on a rear side of the inclined surface. The arm portion engaged with the engagement projection can be released with a simple operation including inserting the jig into the release operation portion from the gap in the opening and pushing the jig in the same direction as the insertion direction.

A contact insert of a conductor terminal for connecting at least one electrical conductor, wherein the contact insert comprises at least one bus bar and at least one clamping spring, wherein the bus bar has at least one through opening, wherein the contact insert has a perforated collar which is designed as a component separate from the bus bar, wherein the perforated collar circumferentially surrounds the through opening at least partially or completely on at least one side of the bus bar.

A joint connector includes a housing comprising a plurality of insertion holes. A first isolation terminal is inserted into a first insertion hole of the plurality of insertion holes. The first isolation terminal is configured to block current flow. A connection terminal is inserted into a second insertion hole of the plurality of insertion holes. The second insertion hole is adjacent to the first insertion hole and is electrically connected to the first isolation terminal.

A contact assembly for an electrical connector signal contacts arranged in pairs and ground contacts are interspersed with the pairs of the signal contacts. Each signal contact includes a signal contact body having first and second sides extending between a signal mating end and a signal terminating end. Each ground contact includes a ground contact body having first and second sides extending between a ground mating end and a ground terminating end. The contact assembly includes a ground shield assembly including a ground shield spanning across the contacts and ground connective elements electrically connected to the ground shield and the corresponding ground contacts. The ground connective elements are compressible.

A joint connector includes a housing comprising a plurality of insertion holes. A first isolation terminal is inserted into a first insertion hole of the plurality of insertion holes. The first isolation terminal is configured to block current flow. A connection terminal is inserted into a second insertion hole of the plurality of insertion holes. The second insertion hole is adjacent to the first insertion hole and is electrically connected to the first isolation terminal.

An electrical connector housing has a plurality of socket cavities configured to receive single terminal inserts or bus inserts introduced from a rearward section. At least one row of socket cavities is formed as cylindrical cavities extending in the housing in parallel manner along an insertion direction running from the rearward to the forward section. Adjacent cavities in the row are separated by a partition wall. First locking means are provided in the socket cavities for locking in place a single terminal insert arranged in a given cavity. Second locking means are provided for locking in place a bus insert inserted in a corresponding number of socket cavities. The partition walls comprise, in the rearward section, slots extending in the insertion direction to accommodate the bus plate of the bus insert.

A connector which is held on an outer peripheral surface of a wire harness having a connector housing which includes an outer peripheral wall on which a tape is to be peripherally wound, and an outermost surface of the outer peripheral wall of the connector housing is provided with: a plurality of planar outer surfaces, ridge line portions, the ridge line portion is provided with a corner-removed chamfered portion and a non-chamfered portion, and the non-chamfered portion is engaged with a side edge of a tape wound around the outer surfaces so as to be used as a position displacement regulation projection configured to regulate an axial position displacement of the connector housing with respect to the tape.

In order to be able to arrange a master module (M), slave modules (S), and conventional plug modules (K) in a freely configurable manner in a modular plug system, a modular frame (22) is provided with a circuit board (1) which includes at least one continuous conductor path and preferably more than one connection pad.
