Abstract
An integrated assembly of a female coaxial cable connector and a universal serial bus (USB) socket, mounted on a printed circuit board, is disclosed. The integrated assembly includes an insulating housing; a plurality of first conductive contacts; a second conductive contact; and a shielding case partially enclosing the insulating housing.
Claims22
An integrated assembly of a female coaxial cable connector and a universal serial bus (USB) socket, mounted on a printed circuit board, comprising:
- an insulating housing having two side walls parallel to each other, a front side having a first engaging unit for engaging with a USB plug and a second engaging unit for engaging with a male coaxial cable connector, and a rear side having a plurality of channels defined therein, wherein the front side and the two side walls form an opening therebetween;
- a plurality of first conductive contacts partially disposed within the plurality of channels, respectively, each of the plurality of first conductive contacts having one end extending from the first engaging unit and the other end protruding from the opening;
- a second conductive contact having one end extending from the second engaging unit and the other end protruding from the opening;
- and
- a shielding case partially enclosing the insulating housing while exposing the first engaging unit and the second engaging unit;
- wherein the USB plug electronically connects to the printed circuit board via the plurality of first conductive contacts, and the male coaxial cable connector electronically connects to the printed circuit board via the second conductive contact.
