Abstract: A shielded housing that provides a shield to a circuit board connector of the SFP-style includes a conductive body that encompasses the connector. The housing has an opening that defines an entrance of the housing through which an opposing mating connector may be inserted. The housing also includes a pair of engagement tabs that are bent inwardly of the housing at an angle thereto and these tabs engage openings formed in a shell of a plug connector that mates with the SFP-style connector. The tabs rest in the openings and may be released by way of latching mechanism that is part of the plug connector. This mechanism includes a handle and two arms that extend lengthwise. The arms end in cam portions that contact and lift the engagement ends out of the plug connector shell openings to unlatch the plug connector from the SFP-style connector. A biasing member is also provided that returns the delatching actuating mechanism to its initial position once the connectors have been released.

Abstract: An adapter module used to convert optical signals to electrical signals or electrical signals to optical signals utilizing a “C” shaped retaining clip to secure the adapter module housing together. The retaining clips are used in place of screws, rivets or snap fits and provide an easy and simple way to assembled adapter modules. The retaining clips require no additional structure thereby minimizing the overall size of the adapter module.

Abstract: A cable assembly including a cable with at least one connector terminated to an end of the cable. The cable includes at least one pair of signal wires and a grounding member that extends the length of the cable. The signal wires and grounding member are terminated to a connector and specifically terminated to two signal terminals and one ground terminal of the connector. These wires are terminated to tail portions of the terminals which are enclosed in an insulative material that defines a body portion of the connector housing. The ground terminal has two contact portions that extend along the exterior of the connector housing body portion, while the signal terminals have contact portions that extend lengthwise of the connector housing. The signal terminal contact portions are enclosed within an extension of the connector housing and the extension and body portions are themselves enclosed in a metal grounding shell. The grounding shell engages the ground contacts at one end and has two contact arms integrally formed therewith that extend into the interior of the connector housing between the signal terminal contact portions.

Abstract translation: 一种电缆组件，包括具有端接到电缆的端部的至少一个连接器的电缆。 电缆包括至少一对信号线和延伸电缆长度的接地部件。 信号线和接地构件端接到连接器并且特别地终止于连接器的两个信号端子和一个接地端子。 这些导线被端接到封闭在限定连接器壳体的主体部分的绝缘材料中的端子的尾部。 接地端子具有沿着连接器壳体主体部分的外部延伸的两个接触部分，而信号端子具有沿连接器壳体的纵向延伸的接触部分。 信号端子接触部分被封装在连接器壳体的延伸部内，并且延伸部分和主体部分本身被包围在金属接地壳体中。 接地壳在一端与接地触头接合，并具有与其一体形成的两个接触臂，其延伸到信号端子接触部分之间的连接器壳体的内部。
