  • Patent number: 9419365
    Abstract: A cable connector assembly includes an insulative housing (1) defining a cavity (1150), a number of contacts (2,3) retained in the insulative housing, a cable (6) electrically connected with the contacts, a spacer (4) assembled to the back end of the insulative housing, and a metallic shell (5) enclosing the insulative housing. The contacts comprise a number of first and second contacts each having a contacting portion and a tail portion, the tail portions extending beyond a back end of the insulative housing. The spacer has a plurality of grooves (42,43) for receiving tail portions of the contacts and a separator disposed between every two neighboring grooves. The separator is T-shaped in order to restrain the contact tail portion.

  • Patent number: 9172149
    Abstract: A cable assembly comprises: an insulative housing; a plurality of contacts received into the insulative housing; a spacer assembled to a rear end of the insulative housing; a wire management assembled to a rear end of the spacer, and a cable electrically connected to the rear ends of the plurality of contacts. The wire management defines a plurality of first and second channels formed on top surfaces. Each of second channel defines a rear inlet and two front outlets. The cable comprises several pairs of signal wires received into the corresponding second channels. Each differential pair of signal wires comprises two signal conductors, a grounding conductor and a shielding layer surrounding the two signal conductors and a grounding conductors. Two front ends of the two signal conductors are exposed out of the shielding layer and extending out of the wire management through two outlets.
