Abstract:
A stacking connector including: a first port for receiving an RJ-45 plug along a front-to-back direction; a second port below the first port for receiving a USB Type-A plug, the second port and the first port being formed on a same insulative housing; and a receiving room formed below the second port for receiving an external USB Type-C connector, the receiving room has an opening running through a bottom surface of the insulative housing.
Abstract:
A modular jack has an insulative housing, two adjacent internal modules, and a middle shield disposed between the adjacent internal modules. The insulative housing has a front wall and a plurality of openings therein configured as pairs of first and second aligned openings, and a receptacle located behind the openings. Each opening is configured to receive a plug connector therein in a front-to-back direction. The middle shield extends towards a front wall of the insulative to define two module receiving cavities each receiving one internal module. The middle shield includes a conductive plate and an insulative sheet affixed thereto. The insulative sheet faces to the internal modules for insulation between the internal modules and the conductive plate. The insulative sheet is very thin that it occupies little space of the receptacle, thereby reducing a size of the modular jack.
Abstract:
An electrical connector for mounting on an external circuit board includes: an insulating body; a terminal module assembled on the insulating body and including a plurality of mating terminals, an insulating carrier with an accommodating cavity, plural intermediate terminals fixed on one side of the insulating carrier and electrically connected to the mating terminals, plural pin terminals fixed on the other side of the insulating carrier, and a magnetic module accommodated in the accommodating cavity and electrically connected to the intermediate terminals and the pin terminals, wherein the insulating carrier is a two-piece housing, the intermediate terminals are held in one housing piece, and the pin terminals are held in the other housing piece.
Abstract:
An electrical connector includes: an insulating body defining a mating space; and a terminal module assembled to the insulating body and having a circuit board and plural mating terminals mounted on the circuit board, wherein: each of the mating terminals has a contact portion extending obliquely backward, a bending portion bent backward from a front end of the contact portion, a connecting portion extending rearward from a rear end of the bending portion, and a mounting portion vertically extending from a rear end of the connecting portion for mounting on the circuit board; and a front end of the circuit board extends forward into the mating space.
Abstract:
An electrical connector includes an insulating body and first through eighth terminals sequentially arranged in a lateral direction in the insulating body, wherein the first and second terminals, the third and sixth terminals, the fourth and fifth terminals, and the seventh and eighth terminals are respectively used to transmit a pair of differential signals, each terminal including: a mating portion for mating to a mating connector; a tail portion opposite to the mating portion; and a connecting portion connected therebetween, the connecting portions of the third terminal to the fifth terminal are all provided with a coupling portion; wherein the coupling portions of the third through fifth terminals are in three different planes, respectively, and the coupling portion of the fifth terminal and the coupling portion of the third terminal at least partially overlap in a longitudinal direction perpendicular to the lateral direction.
Abstract:
An electrical connector includes a terminal module having a circuit board having first through eighth conductive traces sequentially arranged in a transverse direction and corresponding first through eighth terminals, the third terminal and the sixth terminal being configured for transmitting a pair of differential signals, the fourth terminal and the fifth terminal being configured for transmitting another pair of differential signals, the first through eighth conductive traces being respectively electrically connected to corresponding first through eighth terminals, each of the third conductive trace and the fifth conductive trace including a coupling portion, a size of the coupling portion in the transverse direction is larger than a size of the other part of the corresponding conductive trace in the transverse direction, wherein the coupling portion of the third conductive trace and the coupling portion of the fifth conductive trace overlap in an up and down direction to increase mutual coupling.
Abstract:
The plug connector includes an insulative housing and a terminal module wherein the terminal module is able to be moveable relative to the housing via sliding or rotation or translation or even detachment so as to have the front mating portion of the terminal module independently mated with the thin receptacle connector or cooperate with the housing to be mated with the regular RJ-45 modular jack.
Abstract:
A modular jack has a magnetic assembly including insulative body, two rows of terminals retained to the insulative body, four transformers, and four common mode chokes. Each of the transformer and common mode choke includes a magnetic core and a plurality of conductive wires wound therearound. Each terminal has a recess for receiving an end portions of a corresponding wire and then the terminal is inserted into a through-hole of an internal printed circuit board for dip soldering. Guiding of the wire to the recess can be automated in contrast to manual winding operation.
