  • Publication number: 20100265667
    Abstract: An electrical assembly comprises a housing, where the housing has an inner housing and a removable outer housing removably connected to the inner housing. A first connector portion is secured to the inner housing. The first connector portion comprises a dielectric body and connector terminals. A subscriber identification module is supported by the inner housing. The subscriber identification module has device terminals. A group of conductors or a conductor assembly supports an electrical connection of the connector terminals to the device terminals. A holder retains the subscriber identification module with respect to the inner housing.

  • Publication number: 20100265674
    Abstract: In accordance with one embodiment, an electrical assembly comprises a housing having a recess in the housing. A first connector portion is securable to the housing. The connector portion comprises a dielectric body and connector terminals. A subscriber identification module is located in or mounted in the housing and has device terminals. A substrate comprises a first section that intersects at an angle a second section. The first section comprises first conductive traces electrically connected to the device terminals. The second section comprises second conductive traces electrically connected to the connector terminals. Conductors are electrically connected to the first conductive traces and the second conductive traces.

  • Publication number: 20100265673
    Abstract: An electrical assembly comprises a housing having a frame portion. A substrate has a first side and a second side opposite the first side. A subscriber identification module is mounted to a first side of the substrate and has device terminals. A first connector portion is secured to the second side of the substrate and has connector terminals. A retainer is associated with an interior of the frame portion. The retainer retains at least one of the substrate and the first connector portion. Conductive (e.g., conductive vias or through-holes) in the substrate connect the connector terminals to the device terminals.
