  • Flexible breakaway connector
    Patent number: 8591249
    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.
    Type: Grant

  • Sealed plug assembly
    Patent number: 7988476
    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.
