Abstract: An electrical connection device e includes a busbar group, a rack busbar group and an adapter. The busbar group includes a first busbar and a second busbar, the first busbar has a first body and a first transmitting portion. The second busbar has a second body and a second transmitting portion. The second body and the first body are constructed therebetween to be insulated from each other and be not conducted with each other. The rack busbar group includes two rack busbars. The adapter pluggably mates with the first transmitting portion and the second transmitting portion of the busbar group and is configured so that the adapter is capable of floating relative to the busbar group along a left-right direction, the adapter further pluggably mates with the two rack busbars of the rack busbar group and is configured so that the adapter is capable of floating relative to the rack busbar group along an up-down direction.
Abstract: An inline electrical connector system includes male and female connectors and a mate assist slider. The male connector includes first and second spaced apart projections which engage with rotatable gears on the female connector, and the mate assist slider includes a gear track which engages with the gears. Axial movement of the female connector and mate assist slider relative to the male connector causes engagement of the first and second projections with the first and second gears, thereby causing the first and second gears to rotate relative to the gear track and draw the female connector and mate assist slider onto the male connector. A releasable connector position assurance device is provided on the mate assist slider to lock the components into a locked position.

Abstract: A first connector, that is a first connector that mates with a second connector, containing: a first connector main body; a first terminal attached to the first connector main body; a first high-frequency terminal attached to the first connector main body; and a first shield surrounding an entire circumference of the first connector main body; wherein the first shield contains an oblique part that extends obliquely downward, formed on an inner edge at the upper end, and also contains a plurality of linear parts and a plurality of curved parts; the first connector main body being integrally connected at the curved parts, and the first connector main body being separated at the linear parts.
Abstract: An electrical connector and an electrical connector assembly include an insulative fixing seat, an insulative floating seat floatingly mounted thereabove, a floating terminal and a conductive shell. The fixing seat has a terminal fixing groove which extends horizontally. The floating seat has an insertion hole, an outer wall having an annular groove. The floating terminal includes a float connecting portion elastically connected between a mating portion and a horizontal fixing portion and is floatingly received in the fixing seat. The mating portion extends into the insertion hole, the conductive shell sheathes the fixing seat, the conductive shell has a plurality of elastic mating pieces having tips extending into the annular groove.
Abstract: For a connector 10, a stopper surface 35a interferes with a stopper contacted surface 53a when an actuator 50 is in an upright orientation and this restricts movement of the actuator 50 around a support shaft part 52 beyond the upright orientation. The cam control surface 25c and stopper surface 35a are positioned more to the back than at least a part of the support shaft part 52.
Abstract: An electrical connection device includes a busbar group and a rack busbar group. The busbar group includes a first busbar and a second busbar. The first busbar is formed with an inserting groove whose upper end and lower end are in form of opened shape. The second busbar is formed with an inserting groove whose upper end and lower end are in form of opened shape. The rack busbar group includes a first rack busbar, a second rack busbar, a first inserting plate, a second inserting plate, a first floating module, a second floating module and a guiding spacer. The first floating module is provided between the first rack busbar and the first inserting plate, the second floating module is provided between the second rack busbar and the second inserting plate. The busbar group is capable of floating relative to the rack busbar group along an up-down direction and a left-right direction.
Abstract: A battery connection module is used to connect a plurality of batteries, includes a plurality of busbars, a connector, a single layer wiring flexible circuit board and a strengthening back board.
Abstract: A reconfigurable optical add and drop multiplexer (ROADM) system is provided. The ROADM system may include a switching system which includes at least one first WSS optically coupled to a tapping coupler and configured to receive an input optical signal from a first circulator, transmit a drop optical signal to a demultiplexer to drop one or more first wavelength channels, and output a through optical signal. The switching system may also include at least one second WSS optically coupled to the at least one first WSS and a multiplexer and configured to receive an add optical signal to add one or more second wavelength channels, receive the through optical signal, and output an output optical signal to a second circulator, and at least one OCM configured to monitor the input optical signal and the output optical signal.
