Abstract
In an electrically shielded connector, conductive material covers an outer surface of said body and is spaced away from a conductive structure included in the connector to create electrical isolation therebetween. A channel in which the connector is situated is either plugged when conductive material is applied to the connector during manufacturing or is counter bored to create the electrical isolation.
Claims25
An electrically shielded connector, comprising:
- a body at least partially covered with conductive material and having at least two channels, said at least two channels each extending between opposite ends of said body;
- a plurality of conductive structures situated in said channels;
- at least one of said channels at least partially covered with conductive material;
- at least another of said channels being non-conductive;
- said conductive material covering an outer surface of said body and spaced away from one of said conductive structures to create electrical isolation therebetween;
- an area of one or more non-conductive materials extending from said one of said conductive structures to said conductive material covering said outer surface of said body.

An electrically shielded connector, comprising:
- a body covered with conductive material and having an interior conductive channel and an interior non-conductive channel;
- a plurality of conductive structures insulated from each other and situated in said conductive channel and said non-conductive channel, respectively;
- and
- an area of one or more non-conductive materials extending from said conductive structure in said non-conductive channel to said conductive material covering said body.

An electrically shielded connector, comprising:
- a body at least partially covered with conductive material and having at least two channels, said at least two channels each extending between opposite ends of said body;
- a plurality of conductive structures situated in said channels;
- each of said at least two channels at least partially covered with conductive material;
- one of said channels counter bored in order to prevent electrical connection between an interior wall of said one of said channels and an outer surface of said body.
