Abstract
A connector assembly (100) includes a cable (1), an insulative organizer (2), a metal presser (3) and a printed circuit board (PCB, 4). The cable has at least two pairs of wires (10). The organizer has a pair of organizer-haves (20, 21) stacked together and arranged in mirror image. Each organizer-half defines at least a pair of passageways (202) receiving corresponding wires of the cable, thereby arranged the wires into an upper row and a lower row. The presser has a pair of presser-halves (30, 31) attached to the organizer-halves of the organizer and pushing each of the wire into corresponding passageways. The printed circuit board has at least a circuit trace (40, 41) thereon to be electrically connected with the wire of the cable.
Claims21
A connector assembly comprising:
- a cable having at least two pair of wires;
- an organizer having a pair of organizer-halves stacked together and arranged in mirror-image, each organizer-half defining at least a pair of passageways receiving corresponding wires of the cable therein, thereby arranged the wires into an upper row and a lower row;
- a presser having a pair of presser-halves attached to the organizer-halves of the organizer and pushing each of the wire into corresponding passageways;
- and
- a printed circuit board having at least a circuit trace on top and bottom surfaces thereof, each of the circuit traces electrically connected to corresponding wire of the cable.
A connector assembly comprises:
- at least a pair of cables disposed side-by-side, each of the cables having a plurality of wires each comprising at least a signal conductor and a grounding conductor which isolates from the signal conductor;
- an organizer defining at least a plurality of passageways for receiving the wires of the cables;
- a presser attached to the organizer and pushing each of the wires in to corresponding passageways;
- and
- a printed circuit board secured to the cables and having a top and bottom surfaces covered with a plurality of circuit traces thereon for being terminated with corresponding signal conductors and grounding conductors of the wires of the cables.
A connector assembly comprising:
- a cable including a plurality of wires thereof, each of said wires including an inner conductor and an outer insulator;
- an insulative organizer defining a plurality of grooves extending therethrough in a front-to-back direction and receiving said outer insulators therein, respectively, each of said grooves upwardly communicating with an exterior;
- a metallic presser positioned on the organizer and downwardly pressing against the wires into the corresponding grooves, respectively;
- and
- a printed circuit board having circuit traces on a surface, and said inner conductors are electrically connected to the corresponding circuit traces, respectively.
