Abstract: A composite electrical connector assembly includes a housing, a shield, and an electrical contact. The housing is formed from a first material and has an interior chamber. The interior chamber includes a stepped cylindrical surface with first and second openings at mating and mounting ends of the housing, respectively. The interior chamber is staged in diameter to form front, intermediate and rear stages. The shield is formed from a second material and is shaped to fit within the interior chamber. The shield engages the rear stage of the interior chamber and is prevented from being removed from the second opening by the rear stage. The electrical contact is disposed within the interior chamber, is aligned along a longitudinal axis of the connector assembly and is configured to receive a center conductor of a cable and to connect with a conductor of a communication device.

Abstract: A coaxial connector for connecting a first printed circuit board to a second printed circuit board is disclosed. The coaxial connector has an inner conductor, an outer conductor, and a dielectric at least partially disposed between the inner conductor and the outer conductor. Each of the inner conductor, the outer conductor, and the dielectric is compressible.

Abstract: The invention relates to a Microswitch connector (11), having an insulating housing (13) with a contact chamber (31) with an insertion opening (15) and a contact switch spring (25) arranged in the contact chamber (31). The housing (13) has an electrically conductive stop (59) on a side of the contact chamber (31) remote from the insertion opening (15) for making a first external electrical connection. The contact switch spring (25) has a spring bend connecting a fixed leg (37) to a switch leg (39). The fixed leg (37) is fixed in the housing (13) outside the insertion path of the plug-in contact with a connection end (45) for making a second external electrical connection, and the switch leg (39) extends obliquely into the insertion path in the direction of the stop (59) and pivotal resiliently relative to the fixed leg (37) with a free end (57) pre-tensioned to rest against the stop (59).

Abstract: Disclosed is a micro-plug and socket connector that is suitable for mounting on a printed circuit board and that has a plastic housing including a fastening surface with soldering portions for mounting on the surface of the printed circuit board, a plug receiving opening having an inner contact region for the receiving and contacting a pin contact, and an outer contact terminal. The inner contact region, the outer contact terminal, the soldering portions and the electrically conductive connections provided therebetween are formed of metallized portions on the plastic housing.

Abstract: The invention provides a coaxial connector assembly comprising a first coaxial connector and a second coaxial connector matable therewith in an axial direction, each connector comprising a mating section having an inner contact surrounded by an outer contact and separated therefrom by a dielectric, the first or second coaxial connectors having a lead-in portion for guiding and locating the connector mating sections of the first and second coaxial connector during plugging together, wherein said inner contact is formed by a resilient metal strip which is integrally formed with a contact portion being adapted to provide a switchable electrical connection with a corresponding counter contact portion depending on the mated or unmated state of the coaxial connector assembly.

Abstract: A coaxial switching connector especially applicable for use in cell phones is provided with a phone connector and a cradle connector where the cradle connector is mounted in a support structure via a conically shaped coil spring that allows both radial and axial displacement of the connector for absorption of tolerances and mechanical solicitation between the cell phone and its cradle.

Abstract: A coaxial splicing connector has an inner contact section and an outer conductor stamped and formed from sheet metal and having crimping arms that engage hinged stuffer members for stuffing the coaxial connector inner conductors into contact slots. Insulation piercing blades extend inward from the outer conductor and pierce through the coaxial cable outer conductor for electrical contact therewith during the crimping operation. Rapid splicing connection between coaxial connectors is thus achieved.
