  • Patent number: 8632357
    Abstract: An electrical connector has a first shell, an opposing second shell and a circuit board between the first shell and the second shell. The circuit board has a first side and an opposing second side and includes a plurality of differential pair conductive traces on each side. A first drain wire termination device is provided on the first side and includes at least one separator between at least one of the differential pair conductive traces on the first side and another of the differential pair conductive traces on the first side. A second drain wire termination device is connected to the second side and includes at least one separator between at least one of the differential pair conductive traces on the second side and another of the differential pair conductive traces on the second side.

  • Patent number: 8298002
    Abstract: A pair manager for use in securing a twin-axial cable to a printed circuit board is described. The pair manager comprises a generally block-shaped portion containing a pair of channels. The channels extend from the front face to the rear face of the block-shaped portion. An integral flange and a pair of integral fingers extend perpendicularly from the front face of the block-shaped portion. The flange extends generally from the center of the front face and the fingers extend from opposite edges of the front face. The fingers and flange function as a partial shield cavity around each pair of conductors. This design helps to maintain better impedance matching when connecting twin-axial cables to a printed circuit board.
