Abstract: The invention is directed to an adapter for use with a connector assembly. The adapter has a receptacle body and a locking sleeve. The receptacle body is applied to a first portion of the connector assembly, and the locking sleeve is applied to a second portion of the connector assembly. The locking sleeve can be easily disengaged from the receptacle body to remove the second portion or the connector assembly from the first portion.
Abstract: A connector which has a flexible portion which allows the connector to bend in response to non-axial forces applied thereto. When off-axis forces are applied to the connector or a mating connector, the off-axis forces do not cause oblique loading on the connector or mating connector.
Abstract: A protective plug assembly for use with a Universal Serial Bus (USB) connector. The plug assembly is installed over a terminated USB connector and provides additional shielding for the USB connector, thereby allowing the USB connector to be used in military, aerospace, industrial or other applications in which signal degradation is a concern. The plug assembly is easily installed in the field, as the plug adapter assembly may be preassembled during manufacture. The plug assembly also provides sealing for the USB connector which allows the USB connector to be used in environmental conditions which are not conducive to the longevity of an unprotected connector.
