Abstract: An RF connector assembly (100) assembly has a first connector and a second connector (3) electrically connecting with the first connector. The first connector includes a first main body (11) defining an interior space (110), an insulative member (12) received in the interior space, a center conductor (13) retained within the insulative member, a flexible bushing (14) and a magnetic member (15) retained in the interior space. The second connector includes a mating member (35) firmly resisting against the flexible bushing under an attractive force exerted by the magnetic member.

Abstract: A pluggable transceiver module assembly includes a cage (4) having a latch (41) formed thereon, and a pluggable transceiver module (1) for assembling to the cage. The pluggable transceiver module (1) includes a housing (10) having a latching portion (141) engageable with the latch, an actuator (31) and a pivot (34) slidably mounted on the housing, a lever (32) and a spring member (33). The lever engages with the pivot and manipulates to drive the pivot and therefore the actuator to operate the latch. The spring member has a first connecting portion (331) coupled with the lever and a second connecting portion (334) assembled to the housing. The first connecting portion exerts a restoring force to the actuator.

Abstract: A plating method is adapted for applying a layer of metal to an electrical connector (1) The plating method includes the steps of: (1) providing a barrel (2) defining an internal room (21) and an insulative member (4); (2) inserting the insulative member into the internal room of the barrel and having the insulative member firmly resisting against the inner surface of the barrel; (3) plating a layer of metal around an outer surface of the barrel.

Abstract: A pluggable module (3) retained in a mating receptacle cage (1) which has a retaining tab (10) includes a housing (30) and an ejector device (34). The housing has a latch portion (310) retained in the retaining tab, a recessing portion (312) defined on a surface thereof, at least one inclined portion (314) located on the surface of the recessing portion. The ejector device includes a spring member (340) slidably received in the recessing portion and a driving portion (341) for pulling the spring member forwardly. The spring member is guided by the inclined portion and upwardly resists against the retaining tab for releasing the latch portion of the housing from the retaining tab of the receptacle cage.

Abstract: A cable connector assembly (100) has a terminal connector (3), a number of cables (1) connected to the terminal connector, an outer shell (71) defining an interior space (710) receiving the terminal connector, an inner shell (70) and a wire spacer (5). The terminal connector includes an insulative base (302) having a number of terminals (303) mounted therein, a shield (301) enclosing the insulative base and a printed circuit board (31) having a number of pads (311, 312) disposed thereon and arranged in two rows. The wire spacer partially extends out of the outer shell (71) and has a number of parallel passages for extension of the cables and organization of the number of cables.
