摘要： Invention relates to an improved strain relief member for use in a communication network outlet utilizing a card-edge type connector. The connector typically may comprise a housing having a through cavity containing a plurality of axially arranged terminal contacts, where each contact is composed of a pair of blades having a slot therebetween for receiving a conductor normal to the slot. The contacts are exposed to the rear of the housing, and a card-receiving opening communicates with the through cavity from the front of the housing. The rear portion of the housing is generally of a rectangular cross section having a uniform predetermined height. The improved strain relief member, constructed to be press fit onto the rear portion, comprises a dielectric housing having a top wall, a bottom wall and a rear wall extending therebetween. Internally the top and bottom walls include at least a pair of opposing ribs and that the distance therebetween is slightly less than the predetermined height so as to provide a press fit engagement with the rear portion of the connector housing. As an optional feature, means in the form of a conductor engaging wall are provided in the strain relief member to facilitate its use in stuffing or terminating insulation wrapped conductors in the slots between respective blades.

摘要： An assembly for use in connecting data communications equipment to a data communications network includes a network wiring connector 2, mating modular network connector receptacle inserts 4, a cover 6 and a mounting frame 10. The mounting frame 10 is a one piece member, preferably stamped and formed from a flat metal blank. The mounting frame 10 has a flat rear panel 12 with slots 14 in which the wiring connector 2 is mounted. The insert 4 is an edge card member with a connector interface or receptacle 62 which is aligned with openings 72 in the cover to provide an accessible mating interface for a plug attached to the data communications equipment. Side supports 22 on the mounting frame 10 extend forward to support the front end of the insert 4 and provide latching engagement surface 26 cooperative with snap latches 74 on the insert 4. Frame mounting arms having intermediate sections 16 and distal mounting flange sections 18, 20 extend from the top and bottom of the central rear panel section 12. The frame 10 and the entire assembly can be mounted in a standard wall box.

摘要： This invention relates to a high density shielded electrical cable connector receptacle of the type for the transmission of signals from PCMCIA cards to network wiring. The receptacle comprises a housing insert for mounting a plurality of electrical contacts, a pair of hermaphroditic, metal shielding members adapted to lie contiguous with the housing insert, and a dielectric cover member for receiving the assembled housing insert and shielding members. The housing insert comprises a dielectric, elongated, first housing member having a connector mating portion, and a rear insert receiving portion, and a dielectric insert for receipt in the insert receiving portion. The dielectric insert includes an elongated opening through which first ends of the electrical contacts may project, and a rear contact divider characterized by a plurality of axially extending ribs along the upper and lower surfaces of said dividers, where the respective upper and lower ribs are staggered and that the opposite ends of adjacent electrical contacts are alternately arranged between adjacent ribs on the upper and lower surfaces of the divider.

摘要： A data connector is disclosed herein having a premolded one-piece insulative boot housing which is slidably receivable over a shielded subassembly to form a shielded data connector. The one-piece premolded boot housing includes integral latching arms pivotal relative to the housing portion via molded web hinges. The ends of the latching arms adacent the mating face of the connector include hermaphroditic latching members which are capable of latching to an identical electrical connector. A locking ring is receivable over the rearward side of the premolded boot housing and is movable between a locked and unlocked position. When in the locked position, transverse channels formed in the locking ring encompass free ends of the latching arms thereby preventing pivotal movement of the latching arms.

摘要： A hermaphroditic data connector is disclosed herein having latching members integrally connected to a connector body via a molded web of material thereby forming a hinge for the latching members. The forward end of the latching members include latching mechanisms thereon for mated interconnection with a like connector. A locking mechanism is insertable over the latching mechanisms to lock the latching members in place. The locking mechanism includes side walls which flank side edges of the latching members and an upper wall which extends over the latching members. The locking mechanism further includes bars extending integrally from the side walls of the locking member, and are positioned intermediate the latching members and the connector housing.
