Abstract: A connector unit includes a contact module received within an insulative housing. The contact module includes an upper contact unit and a lower contacts unit stacked with each other. Each of the upper contact unit and the lower contact unit includes a front/outer contact part and a rear/inner contact part each including plural contacts integrally formed with plural insulative transverse bars via insert-molding. The contacts include plural differential pair signal contacts and plural grounding contacts alternately arranged with each other along a transverse direction. Plural grounding bars are attached to corresponding transverse bars, respectively, wherein each grounding bar include plural tabs mechanically and electrically connecting to the corresponding grounding contacts. Each grounding bar is equipped with a plastic attachment tie bar to cooperate with a corresponding transverse bar to sandwich the grounding bar therebetween for securement.

Abstract: A plug connector adapted for connecting corresponding wires includes an insulative body integrally formed with two rows of plug contacts in a lateral direction and a transverse bar. The plug contacts are categorized with differential-pair contacts and grounding contacts alternately arranged with each other in a longitudinal direction. The transverse bar extends along the longitudinal direction perpendicular to the lateral direction and is unitarily linked to rear ends of all the grounding contacts of each row of plug contacts while being isolated from the differential-pair contacts. All the contacts and the transverse bar are stamped from a same sheet metal initially, and the differential-pair contacts are successively disconnected from the transverse bar after the plug contacts are integrally formed with the insulative body.

Abstract: The QSFP-DD module has an internal printed circuit board defining a mating port at a front edge region, and a connecting port at a rear edge region, and plural sets of wires mechanically and electrically connected to the connecting port with a plurality of ground staples discrete from one another to secure the respective sets of wires to the printed circuit board. The pitch among the ground staples is essentially 3.38 mm, and the wires are connected to two opposite surfaces of the printed circuit board with the associated ground staples. The staples are arranged in rows along the transverse direction.

Abstract: A QSFP-DD receptacle connector received within a cage includes an insulative housing and a contact module assembly received within the housing. The contact module includes a plurality of horizontal wafers stacked with one another, and each wafer includes an insulator and a plurality of contacts integrally formed therein wherein each contact has a front contact sections extending forwardly into a mating cavity formed in the housing, and a rear connecting section connected to a cable rather than to the printed circuit board. The receptacle connector associated with a cable is attached to a chassis. The cage optionally forms therein two mating spaces respectively receiving two receptacle connectors with the associated cables extending rearwardly.

Abstract: The first type adaptor cable assembly has an inner connector equipped with a plug board derived from the FP5 for mating with the FP5 vertical receptacle connector, and an outer connector configured to be in compliance with the FP5 or QSFP-DD receptacle connector and disposed at a rear end of the cage for mating with the FP5 or QSFP-DD inserted into the cage. Notably, the connection between the inserted FP5 and QSFP-DD and the corresponding FP5 or QSFP-DD receptacle connector directly attached/linked to the adaptor cable, is same with the traditional connection between the inserted FP5 or QSFP-DD and the corresponding receptacle connector which is only mounted to the main/external printed circuit board without directly attachment to the cable.
