Abstract:
A connector assembly (1) comprises an outer housing (300); and a latch (330), which is carried by the outer housing (300), to allow a coupling of the connector assembly to a corresponding counter connector. Further, the outer housing (300) is configured to receive at least one of two different types of cables (100) through a first end and at least one of two different module mating interfaces (430, 432, 434) at a second end. In another embodiment the outer housing (300) is arranged movable on an inner housing (200), and the latch (330) is rotatably arranged on the outer housing (300).
Abstract:
Communications jacks include a housing having a plug aperture that is configured to receive a mating RJ-45 plug along a longitudinal axis and eight jackwire contacts that are arranged as four differential pairs of jackwire contacts, each of the jackwire contacts including a plug contact region that extends into the plug aperture. A first of the jackwire contacts is configured to engage a longitudinally extending surface of a first blade of a mating RJ-45 plug when the mating RJ-45 plug is fully received within the plug aperture.
Abstract:
A catheter and method for the treatment of a patient having atrial flutter or other arrhythmia comprises an elongated catheter body having an outer wall, proximal and distal ends, and at least one lumen extending therethrough. Further it has a distal tip section comprising a flexible tubing having a proximal end and a distal end and a plurality of lumens extending therethrough. The proximal end of the tip section is fixedly attached to the distal end of the catheter body. The tip section further comprises a nitinol tube having slots formed therein which causes the distal tip section to deflect using the same puller-wire action used to cause the deflectable catheter to deflect at a point proximal to the distal tip section.
Abstract:
A connecting structure includes a housing which is configured to be inserted into a cover, and a terminal which is accommodated in the housing and configured to hold an electronic device. The housing allows the electronic device to be inserted from an outside of the housing into the housing in a state where the terminal is accommodated in the housing. The cover is configured to come in contact with the electronic device in a state where a part of the electronic device is inserted to the terminal. The cover is configured to allow the housing to be inserted into the cover in a state where whole part of the electronic device is inserted into the housing to be held at a normal position by the terminal. The cover has an abutting face preventing the electronic device from slipping out from the housing in a state where the housing is inserted into the cover.
Abstract:
Implantable medical devices include headers having various features such as a modular design whereby the header is constructed from a series of stacked contact modules. Additional features include a feedthrough where pins exiting a housing of the implantable medical device extend into the header to make direct electrical connection to electrical contacts present within the header where those electrical contacts directly engage electrical connectors of leads inserted into the header. Other features include electrical contacts that are relatively thin conductors on the order of 0.040 inches (1.016 mm) or less and may include radial protrusions where the radial protrusions establish contact with the electrical connectors of the leads. Furthermore, electrical contacts may be mounted within the header in a floating manner so that radial movement of the electrical contacts may occur during lead insertion.
Abstract:
A connector arrangement (5000) includes a plug nose body (5004); a printed circuit board (5020) positioned within a cavity (5060) of the plug nose body; and a plug cover (5006) that mounts to the plug nose body to enclose the printed circuit board within the cavity. The printed circuit board includes a storage device (5030) configured to store information pertaining to the electrical segment of communications media. The plug cover defines a plurality of slotted openings through which the second contacts (5035) are exposed. A connector assembly includes a jack module (5110) and a media reading interface (5145) configured to receive the plug. A patch panel includes multiple jack modules and multiple media reading interfaces.
Abstract:
A connector of horizontal construction includes at least a pair of first and second halves that are mated together along a common mating line. A plurality of mating blades are supported in a vertical arrangement within a mating portion of the connector. The connector includes two distinct fastenings means for holding the housing halves together. A first fastening means is provided as a horizontal attachment member that extends widthwise in the mating portion in a space between the circuit cards. A second fastening means is provided as an exterior retainer that engages at least part of the outer circumference, or perimeter of the connector.
Abstract:
An I/O connector has a housing that contains a plurality of individual terminal wafers containing terminal dedicated to either ground signals or differential signals. The terminals are arranged in widthwise order to define broadside coupled differential signal terminal pairs. The ground terminals are wider than the signal terminals to provide shielding to the differential signal pairs. The body portions of the ground terminals include pairs of opposed notches that provide for increased retention of the ground terminals in the wafer and provide increased flow for molding material during the formation of the wafers.
Abstract:
A connector housing includes a plurality of wafers containing terminal dedicated to either ground signals or differential signals. Terminals in adjacent wafers can be arranged to provide broadside coupled differential signal pairs. Terminals dedicated for use as ground terminals can be wider than the signal terminals to provide shielding between adjacent differential signal pairs. The signal terminals of each differential signal terminal pair can a constant width from their contact portions to a location proximate their tail portions and the terminals diverge from broadside alignment and increase in their width until they end at the terminal tail portions.
