Abstract: A connector, such as a fiber optic connector, including a protective sealant layer bonded to a mating interface of the connector to protect against contaminants and damage to the mating interface prior to use. The sealant layer may comprise a liquid polymer applied to the mating interface using a seal mold to help prevent the polymer from wicking. The liquid polymer may dry at room temperature by solvent evaporation to form a protective barrier covering the mating interface to protect against physical and chemical damage. The protective seal layer also serves to clean the mating interface upon removal of the seal layer to provide for optimal performance of the connector.

Abstract: A connector or adaptive connector includes a first subassembly and a second subassembly with each subassembly including a center conductor and terminating at one end in a termination portion forming a connector portion. The subassemblies interface with each other to slide with respect to each other. A spring acts on each of the subassemblies to bias the subassemblies to slide away from each other and a sleeve contains the subassemblies and spring, the sleeve securing at least one of the subassemblies while allowing movement of the other of the subassemblies in the sleeve for varying the length of the connector. Each subassembly center conductor includes a respective portion of an electrical contact that cooperate to form a center conductor for the connector. The portions of the electrical contact are configured to slide relative to each other when the connector varies in length for maintaining an electrical signal path through the connector.

Abstract: A connector for interfacing with a circuit board includes a body having opposing first and second face surfaces and defining a plurality of ports extending between the face surfaces. A plurality of center conductors extend in respective ports between the face surfaces. Support elements engage the center conductors to secure the center conductors generally centered in the respective ports. Each center conductor includes a pin portion positioned proximate to the first face surface and a plunger portion positioned to extend beyond the second face surface. The plunger portion moves longitudinally with respect to the connector second face surface for varying the distance of an end of the center conductor from the second face surface to allow adjustability in the interfacing of the connector with a circuit board or other signal handling component.

Abstract: A connector and shielding ring for use with the connector includes a male portion with a shroud and a center conductor and a female portion with a jack and a socket positioned to receive the center conductor. A conductive shielding ring is positioned between the mated connector portions. The shielding ring has a body configured for surrounding flexible tines of the female portion jack and is configured to be captured between the tines and the shroud for providing a grounding path between the male and female portions of the connector. The shielding ring body has an inner surface with a diameter and an outer surface with a diameter and has a taper portion formed on a distal end of the shielding ring body for engaging a surface of the shroud. The shielding ring body has a lip extending radially inwardly at the proximal end for engaging the tines of the female portion when the male and female portions of the connector are mated.

Abstract: An electrical connector system includes a connector with a plug. A shroud extends over a portion of the plug and is coupled with the plug. A conductive socket is configured for receiving the plug of the connector. The socket includes a groove formed on an outer surface thereof. The shroud includes spring fingers having a lock portion thereon configured for engaging the groove for securing the connector in the socket. A collar is slidably mounted on the conductive socket and is configured for sliding between a locked position proximate to the socket groove and an unlocked position. The collar is further configured for engaging the spring fingers of the connector shroud in the locked position to hold the finger lock portions engaged with the groove to lock the connector in the socket.

Abstract: The disclosure relates to an electrical connector having an electrical contact assembly housed within a cavity of a connector shell. The contact assembly includes a contact housing with a core extending in an axial direction and a plurality of fins radiating outwardly from the core, each of the fins separating adjacent housing-receiving cavities from one another. In an assembled configuration, a first plurality of electrical contacts is housed within a first housing receiving cavity and a second plurality of electrical contacts is housed within a second housing receiving cavity, where the first and second plurality of electrical contacts are different in type and structure from one another such that the electrical connector accommodates multiple contact layouts to improve overall functionality.

Abstract: A high speed electrical connector assembly includes a mating female connector with sockets and male connector with pins. The female connector includes a connector body formed to define a mount face surface and contact face surface and one or more apertures extending therebetween. One or more sockets are positioned in the connector body apertures. The socket includes a mount portion and a pin receiving portion and the mount portion is configured for engaging an internal surface of the aperture proximate the mount face surface for securing the socket in the aperture. The pin receiving portion is maintained in a free-floating position away from the internal surface of the aperture with a tip end of the pin receiving portion being positioned below the contact face surface. An air gap is formed in the aperture around the free-floating portion and tip end.

Abstract: An electrical connector system includes mating pin and socket connectors each designed for improving the mechanical locking capabilities of the electrical connector system. A first connector includes a pin contact having a head portion with grooves formed thereon, and a second connector includes a cavity dimensioned for receiving the pin contact. A pair of channels are formed along an interior wall of the contact-receiving cavity, with a coiled spring seated within each of the channels. When the connectors are mated, one or both of the coiled springs engages one of the grooves of the head portion of the pin contact to latch the first and second connectors together in a locked configuration.

Abstract: A connector includes separate portions that rotatably couple together and form a connector. The portions include elements for defining cavities and or slots therebetween that accept one or more shear elements, such as shear pins for the purposes of coupling the separate portions together in forming a unitary connector. The connector might be used between a cable and another connector or could form part of the connector on a cable. The shear element is configured for engaging the various portions and spanning across the interface for joining the portions together. The shear element is configured for breaking when a sufficient torque force is applied between the connector portions.

Abstract: An electrical connector system includes mating pin and socket connectors each designed for increased contact density to improve performance of high-speed data transfer. The connectors include features for retaining a plurality of pin or socket contacts in a ganged, co-aligned configuration and for shielding groups of contacts from one another to reduce interference and crosstalk. The connectors further include features for providing strain relief to the internal wires and/or cables. One of the connectors may include a plug insert with cantilevered fingers extending therefrom that contact a conductive surface of the mating connector to provide a mechanical connection and a low-impedance pathway between the mating connectors for grounding and shielding. The connectors are designed to be readily assembled and disassembled for repair or rework without the use of special tools.
