Abstract:
An electrical connector for terminating electrical conductors includes a housing and a cap mounted to the housing. The housing includes a first housing section extending between a front wall and a base, a first wire groove formed through the front wall, and an insulation displacement connector (IDC) element disposed in the first housing section and configured for attachment to a printed circuit. The cap includes a pivot portion pivotally mounted to the housing and a cover portion extending from the pivot portion, where the pivot portion defines a wire receiving recess. In this regard, the cap is rotatable between an open position in which the first recess is linearly aligned with the first wire groove, and a closed position in which the cover portion is coupled to the front wall and the pivot portion is offset from the base to define a wire cavity.
Abstract:
An electrical connector has a housing that includes a mating end defining a first connector relief segment opposite a second connector relief segment and a first connector projection segment opposite a second connector projection segment. At least one male contact extends from a face of the first connector relief segment and at least one male contact extends from a face of the second connector relief segment. At least one female contact is formed in a face of the first connector projection segment and at least one female contact is formed in a face of the second connector projection segment. In this regard, the mating end is configured to align and mate with a mating end of a second substantially identical electrical connector.
Abstract:
A cover includes a flexible polymeric body defining a longitudinally extending space and having an outer surface, a first end defining an opening providing access to the space, a second end opposite to the first end, and an attachment segment positioned near the second end. The opening and the space are configured to receive an end portion of a terminated cable. The attachment segment is configured to receive a pulling member. The cover may be positioned over an end portion of a terminated cable and attached to a pulling member to draw the terminated cable through a passageway.
Abstract:
An electrical cable assembly includes a carrier having an insulating housing and at least one retention clip for managing and securing terminated cable assemblies to the carrier. The side exterior walls of the insulating housing are configured to enable side-to-side and end-to-end placement of a plurality of carriers for mating to a pin header, resulting in a high speed, high density electrical connector system.
