Abstract: Connection support comprising an insulator housing inside which a coaxial connector is provided. The coaxial connector comprises a plug-shaped load contact and a ground contact. The load contact is placed inside a cavity of the housing. The ground contact is on an inner rim of this cavity. The connection support comprises a retaining collar to cooperate with an outer rim of a matching connector that can be inserted into the cavity. This outer rim corresponds to the same rim with which the ground contact cooperates. This retaining collar preferably has the an open annular shape.

Abstract: An input/output connector for a portable communication device, wherein the input/output connector is to be surface mounted on a printed circuit board. The input/output connector comprises an insulating housing, contacts and means for shaping the contacts. The insulating housing has two positioning dogs fixed to lateral parts of the insulating housing. The two positioning dogs are to be soldered to the printed circuit board when the input/output connector is mounted thereto. The contacts are also to be soldered to the printed circuit board when the input/output connector is surfaced mounted to the printed circuit board. The means for shaping the contacts are received and mounted rigidly on a specified reference surface of the insulating housing. The means for shaping the contacts constrain and wedge the contacts relative to the reference surface of the insulating housing so that each of the contacts is contained in a common plane of reference for the coflatness of the contacts.

Abstract: The device (1') of the invention comprises a clamp (10') and a ring (11) adapted to be screwed to a connector (2) to form a stress relief removably attached to the rear of the connector. In accordance with the invention, the clamp (11') has two parts: a rear part (102") forming a receptacle and a front part (102') which is open, having a "C" shape. The material of the clamp (10') is a composite material having elastic properties. By compressing it, the branches of the "C" can be moved closer together and the clamp (10') inserted in or removed from the ring (11). The clamp (11') also includes pegs (105) providing insertion abutments, preventing withdrawal of the ring (11). The clamp (10') can be straight or angled.
