Shield for a connector interface and connector assembly

Abstract

The utility model relates to a shield, which is used to wrap at least a part of a cable connector. The shield has a hollow shield body made of elastic material. The shield body surrounds a through-hole for receiving the cable connector and is provided with: multiple circumferential ribs, which are spaced apart from each other in the axial direction and protrude outward in the radial direction; and at least one axial rib, which protrudes outward in the radial direction. The shield of the present utility model can reduce the risk of collapse in the axial direction during the process of installing the shield onto the cable's cable connection portion, thereby improving the installation efficiency. Additionally, the shield according to the present utility model allows for a smaller wall thickness, which helps to reduce manufacturing costs. The present utility model also relates to a connector assembly including the above-mentioned shield.
