Abstract: A connector for a cable for high frequency signals, in particular for connecting cables with contact pins on a printed circuit board comprises a ground plate, a housing of dielectric material with cavities for receiving female contact members, at least one female signal contact member and at least one female ground contact member. The (each) ground contact member is formed out of the ground plate unitary with the ground plate.

Abstract: A connector assembly for printed circuit boards comprises a first connector part and a second connector part. The first connector part has a first housing of insulating material comprising a bottom and two opposite side walls and male contact elements mounted in the bottom of the housing being arranged in rows and columns. The second connector part has a second housing of insulating material adapted to be inserted into the first housing with an insertion side and with female contact elements mounted in the housing and arranged in a corresponding manner in rows and columns. A ground contact plate is provided at both sides of each at least one column of female contact elements, wherein the ground contact plates at the insertion side of the second housing are projecting out of said housing along a distance substantially corresponding with the thickness of the bottom of the first housing. Slots are provided in the bottom of the first housing for receiving the ground contact plates.

Abstract: A connector assembly for interconnecting optical and/or electrical conductors comprises a first guiding plate (3) to be embedded in a printed circuit board (1) and a second guiding plate (11). The guiding plates have one or more guiding channels (4, 12) for first conductors and second conductors to be connected with the first conductors respectively. Each conductor includes a contact pad in the main surface of the corresponding printed circuit board or guiding plate. The guiding plates comprise a projection (13, 19) and a slot (16, 21) for mutually positioning the contact pads of the conductors. The projection and slot have co-operating straight reference surfaces (14, 17, 20, 22) located at a predetermined position with respect to the guiding channels and these reference surfaces are pressed together to accurately align the guiding channels of the guiding plates.

Abstract: A connector assembly for interconnecting optical and/or electrical conductors comprises a first connector part with a first guiding plate with one or more guiding channels for first conductors each terminated by a contact pad and a second connector part to be coupled with the first connector part and having a second guiding plate with one or more guiding channels provided in a corresponding manner for second conductors to be connected with the first conductors and each terminated by a contact pad. The guiding plates comprise positioning means for mutually positioning the guiding plates in the coupled position of the connector parts in such a manner that corresponding contact pads of the first and second conductors are interconnected optically and electrically, respectively.
