Abstract: A sealed electrical connector having a dual molded sealed construction with a rigid body portion and integral wire seals and an integral interfacial seal formed of a material more flexible than the rigid body. The mating connectors each receive a plurality of terminals at least partially within separate passages and one connector housing has a common cavity with which the passages communicate. A retention and keying insert received within the cavity both retains the terminals and provides modular keying to segregate otherwise identical connectors. A matable cap attached to the other member engages the retention insert. The insert and cap are formed from a material less susceptible to plastic flow than the rigid body and plastic flow of the rigid body captures the insert and the cap.
Abstract: An electrical connector in which securing of an insulating body to a protective housing is done by the deformation of an inserted piece. The electrical connector has a special configuration of the insulating body and housing due to the presence of bevels, which makes it possible, by deformation of a retention element, to obtain a rapid and effective assembly.

Abstract: A two-piece electrical connection assembly comprising a first connector comprising a first insulating housing carrying plural first contacts in close proximity in a row, and a second mating connector for making connection between wires of a multiple conductor cable and said first contacts of said first connector, said second connector comprising a second insulating housing providing means for supporting second contacts aligned with said first contacts for mating with them and providing a spacing member, elongated second contacts having contact portions in position for mating with first contacts, connecting end portions connected to said wires, and spaced portions between said contact portions and said end portions and spaced from adjacent spaced portions by said spacing member, and heat shrunk plastic tubes surrounding the ends of said wires and said connecting end portions up to locations on said second contacts sufficiently close to said spacing member for the contacts to be spaced from each other, said tub
Abstract: An hermetic, pressure proof coaxial connectors for flexible cables. A small onnector with SMA mating configuration accepts dielectric diameters to 0.187" while a larger connector with TNC mating configuration accepts up to 0.375". These connectors provide a low VSWR and RF attenuation to 18.0 GHz.
