摘要:
An electrical connector is made repairable by providing a front insert which is removable from and retained in the shell by an O-ring. The shell includes an undercut in which the O-ring is mounted, and the insert includes a circumferential elliptical groove. In use, as the insert assembly is inserted into the shell, the O-ring mounted on the undercut of the shell is compressed by the insert until it reaches the groove, whereupon it expands into the groove in a direction parallel to the direction of insertion, which constitutes the major axis of the elliptical profile of the groove, and thus provides positive retention and sealing without the need for additional retention mechanisms. Removal is facilitated by a removal tool which includes hooks extending from a front circumference of a sleeve of the removal tool. The hooks are inserted through slots in the insert and past a collar provided around the mating interface of the insert. The tool is then rotated a short distance to cause the hooks to engage a back surface of the collar, while a piston provides a biasing force to lock the insert against the connector during removal.

Electrical connector assemblies are provided that include electrical connectors having electrical contacts that have receptacle mating ends are provided. The connector housings of the provided electrical connectors include alignment members that are capable of performing staged alignment of components of the electrical connector assemblies. The provided electrical connector assemblies and the electrical connectors provided therein are capable of operating at a data transfer rate of forty gigabits per second with worst case multi-active cross talk that does not exceed a range of about two percent to about four percent.

摘要:
An electrical connector is provided having an electrically insulative connector housing that supports a plurality of signal contacts, as well as a plurality of ground contact networks. The ground contact networks include a conductive ground coupling bar supporting a plurality of ground contacts along a pair of columns that are spaced apart along a row direction.
摘要:
An electrical connector includes a dielectric housing, a plurality of electrical signal contacts supported by the dielectric housing, and an electrically conductive ground plate supported by the dielectric housing. The dielectric hosing defines at least one protrusion, and the ground plate defines at least one aperture that receives the protrusion. The apertures can define a first dimension along a select direction and a second dimension along the select direction, wherein the first dimension is greater than the second dimension so as to define a lead-in for the protrusion. The protrusion can be press-fit to the electrically conductive ground plate at the second dimension of the aperture so as to secure the ground plate to the dielectric housing.
