  • Patent number: 11769966
    Abstract: An anti-attenuation apparatus has an electronic device and a cable assembly. The electronic device has a circuit board and a plurality of metal pads mounted on the circuit board as female connecting spots. The cable assembly has a cable main body and an inserting connector. The inserting connector is mounted at an end of the cable main body and has multiple elastic components as male connecting spots. The female connecting spots and the male connecting spots selectively contact each other and thus the electric connection is formed. Therefore, the electronic device needs no additional socket and no additional connector as female connecting spots. Similarly, the cable assembly needs no additional connector for connecting the elastic component and the cable main body. In other words, twice attenuations are skipped in a set that has the electronic device and the cable assembly.
