Abstract: An electrical connector includes a contact module having a first dielectric frame holding first conductors and a second dielectric frame holding second conductors stacked with the first dielectric frame to form the contact module. The first dielectric frame has insertion loss control windows defining air pockets exposing exposed portions of the corresponding first conductors to air. The size and shape of the insertion loss control windows control insertion loss along the first conductors. The second dielectric frame has insertion loss control windows defining air pockets exposing exposed portions of the corresponding second conductors to air. The size and shape of the insertion loss control windows control insertion loss along the second conductors. The insertion loss control windows of the second dielectric frame are aligned with and are open to the insertion loss control windows of the first dielectric frame.

Abstract: Wired connector assembly systems and methods involve fixing a connector in an assembly station and following, by an assembler, a set of instructions indicating a set of wires and a respective set of terminal portions of the connector in which the set of wires are to be seated. A controller of the assembly station then monitors a pulling force on the connector via each seated wire to verify proper wire-terminal portion seating. After completing the set of instructions, including verifying each proper wire-terminal portion seating, the connector is released from the assembly station and a fully assembled wired connector is obtained.
