Abstract: A connector having an improved means of providing contact or locking with the connector comprising a connector body having an input section and an output section, wherein said output section is dimensioned for insertion into a corresponding socket. A connector tab having a locking device, said connector tab having a first end and a second end, wherein the first end is attached to and lies within the input section of the connector body and the second end is spaced away from connector body, wherein said locking device is positioned at the second end, wherein the locking device is within the output section. An enhanced contact pressure connector may comprise at least one raised pressure area, wherein said raised pressure area may be positioned to be within the output section of the connector body on the other side, and further wherein when said raised pressure area directs force to the at least one contact when compressed.

Abstract: An ethernet cable connector for coupling an ethernet cable and providing contact between insulated wires of the ethernet cable and insulation displacement contacts within the connector. The connector includes an inner body having a clamp, a plurality of holes and a plurality of recesses transverse to the plurality of holes. Each hole receives a wire of an ethernet cable. The outer body is operatively coupled to the inner body and is configured to couple insulation displacement contacts within the outer body. The insertion of the inner body within the outer body bends the wires of the ethernet cable to rest within the plurality of recesses of the inner body, engages the insulation displacement contacts with the ethernet wires and compresses the clamp around a portion of the ethernet cable, thereby providing strain reduction to the ethernet wires.

Abstract: An F connector for mounting to the prepared end of a coaxial cable by compression of portions of the connector into tight frictional engagement with the cable. The body and compression ring of the usual F connector are incorporated in a unitary, one-piece body having three axial sections. The first section surrounds and frictionally engages the outer surface of the post stem in the usual manner. The second section is spaced from the stem to provide an annular space for the shielding and outer dielectric layers of the cable, also in the usual manner. A third section of the body is joined to the second section by an area of reduced thickness. In a first disclosed embodiment, the body fractures at the area of reduced thickness in response to an axial force applied to the third section in the direction of the second section.
