Abstract: In one example, a cage assembly can include a receiver portion to receive an electrical cable. The cage assembly can include a sidewall portion to encase the electrical cable and protect the electrical cable from electro-mechanical interference (EMI). The cage assembly can include an attachment portion to attach to a printed circuit board (PCB). The cage assembly can include a lower portion comprising an aperture that the electrical cable exits through to be mechanically attached to the PCB.

Abstract: An electrical plug connector has a housing for accommodating conductors and a separate adapter part with an outer contour matched to an inner contour of the housing and an inner structure for connecting a sleeve conductor serving to encase the conductors. The adapter part additionally contains measures for accommodating a ground contact.

Abstract: A novel, reliable, easy-to-install cable connector requiring a combination of push-on force with minimal torque for proper clamping and sealing to a target port is provided. Such a connector device includes a rubber element that encircles metal contact fingers and which is compressible through tightening of a hand-operable nut to secure contact between the metal contact fingers and the target port. The device also includes a contact basket with at least one cut-out portion that, upon tightening of the nut noted above, deforms into latching engagement with the external threads of the subject port. In such a manner, the inventive cable connector provides a highly effective apparatus for signal transfer, reduced interference and noise ingress, and reliable moisture prevention. A method of providing a signal connection and transfer in a cable system is also encompassed within this invention.
