Abstract: A card edge connector comprising a housing, signal contacts and a ground contact. The housing has a card edge receiving area. The signal contacts are connected to the housing. The ground contact is connected to the housing and generally surrounds a corresponding signal contact.

Abstract: A card edge connector having a housing, signal contacts and a four bladed ground contact. The housing has a card edge receiving area. The signal contacts are connected to the housing and the four bladed ground contact is also connected to the housing. The four bladed ground contact has a one piece frame with two pairs of opposing contact blades on opposite sides of the card edge receiving area in the housing.

Abstract: An electrical connector with a frame and an electrical contact mounted to the frame. The frame has a general clamshell design adapted to surround a portion of a cable to mechanically connect the frame to the cable. The frame has an elongate C-shaped member with an outer section and an inner section. The contact is sandwiched between the two sections. The contact has a curved busing strip with contact terminals extending in opposite directions from the busing strip.

Abstract: A filtered electrical connector includes a housing, filter contacts, and a ground plane member. The filter contacts include a contact member and, a tubular capacitor connected to the contact member. The capacitor is mounted over the contact member and sandwiched between a ledge of the contact member and an end of a crimping sleeve with conductive elastomeric washers compressed therebetween. The ground plane member has receiving apertures to receive and make contact with the filter contacts and, contact legs. A separate contact leg is provided for each receiving aperture. Each of the legs makes contact with the housing.
