Abstract: A coupling device, in particular for an optical fiber network, the device being of the type comprising a housing (100) and a shutter (200) pivoted to the housing (100) in register with the outline of an opening (112) therein, the device being characterized by the fact that the shutter (200) comprises a cylindrical dome (210) centered on the pivot axis, and by the fact that the pivot axis is set back from the front face (114) defining the opening of the housing (100).

Abstract: The present invention relates to an electrical connection assembly particularly for local area networks of high information bit rate, characterized in that it comprises: a socket (100) comprising electrical contacts (120) designed to be connected to the conductor of at least one connecting cable, while at the same time being accessible on the socket, and an insert (200) which can be fixed mechanically to the socket (100) and itself having electrical contacts (220) designed to come automatically to bear against the electrical contacts (120) of the socket (100) when the insert (200) is engaged therein, while at the same time themselves being accessible on the insert (200) in a selective layout tailored to the layout of a complementary connection assembly.

Abstract: An electrical connector for high frequencies, the connector comprising two elements (100, 200) adapted to be engaged by moving in translation, each element (100, 200) comprising a body (110, 210) of electrically insulating material provided with electromagnetic shielding (130, 230) and carrying a plurality of electrical contacts (120-127; 220-227), the connector being characterized by the fact that the shielding (130, 230) of each element comprises a cage-forming portion (132, 232) provided with an internal crosspiece (135, 235) defining cells each housing a pair of contacts (120-127; 220-227), and said shielding (130, 230) forming, when in the assembled position, an electromagnetic join plane extending generally transversely to the direction in which the connector elements (100, 200) are mutually engaged.
