Abstract: A cable bypass assembly is disclosed for use in providing a high frequency transmission line that connect a chip package on a circuit board to connector spaced apart from the chip package. The bypass cable assembly has a structure that allows for low loss between the chip package and the connector. Multiple cables can be used to provide a number of differentially coupled channels.

Abstract: A routing assembly for an electronic device has a front face with an array of connectors ports and each of the connector ports contain a first connector mounted therein. A first end of a cable can be directly terminated to the first connectors and the cables can be embedded in a tray that is configured to extend toward a chip package. The cables extend from the tray and terminates to a second connector that can be connected to the chip package so as to provide a communication path between the first connector and the second connector that bypasses any supporting circuit board.

Abstract: A computing device includes a first connector near a first wall. The first connector is in communication with a chip package positioned apart for the first wall via a first cable. The chip package includes a chip supported by a support layer. The chip can be supported by a substrate and/or a circuit board. A second connector can be positioned near a second wall and can also be in communication with the chip package via a second cable. If desired, the substrate or circuit board can include a signal board connector that is configured to engage board connectors terminated to ends of the first and second cables.

Abstract: A wire to board connector is provided for connecting cables of cable bypass assemblies to circuitry mounted on a circuit board. The connector has a structure that maintains the geometry of the cable through the connector. The connector includes a pair of edge coupled conductive signal terminals and a ground shield to which the signal terminals are broadside coupled. The connector includes a pair of ground terminals aligned with the signal terminals and both sets of terminals have J-shaped contact portions that flex linearly when the connector is inserted into a receptacle. In another embodiment, the signal terminal contact portions are supported by a compliant member that may deflect when the connectors engage contact pads on a substrate.

Abstract: A connector for use in a free-standing connector port for mating with an external pluggable module is disclosed. The connector has terminals that extend lengthwise of the connector so that cables may be terminated to the terminals and the terminals and cable generally are horizontally aligned together. The connector includes a housing and a pair of connecting elements that flank a card-receiving slot of the connector. The cables exit from the rear of the connector elements and from the connector port. The connector elements engage the connector port to fix the connector in place within the connector port.
