  • Patent number: 5895292
    Abstract: The connector system comprises an outlet and a single connector or a double connector. The single connector is suitable for connection of a service with four poles. The module of the outlet has four chambers, one pair of wires of the cable, shielded in pairs, being accepted per chamber. Two contact pins each are mounted per chamber of the module. The outlet comprises a base part and a cover. The single connector comprises a cover and a floor. Disposed in the housing, formed by the cover and the floor, are two guide bodies. The guide bodies each have two through holes in which sockets are provided for connection with the contact pins of the outlet. The guide bodies are provided with a shield on their part protruding beyond the housing, which shield is in contact with the inner wall of the chambers of the outlet. The ground connection is realized continuously throughout the connector system. The connector system is EMC-tight.
