Abstract
An insulating body, which can be inserted into a chamber of a plug-in connector housing intended for this purpose, has at least one recess for at least one contact element for connecting to a conductor of a cable or a conducting path of a printed circuit board, and a shielding element for electromagnetically shielding the contact element, wherein the insulating body is formed from at least a first component and a second component, wherein the insulating body contains a cavity having a surface formed from the first component, and wherein the first component contains a dopant through which the surface is provided with a conductive coating forming the shielding element.
Claims9
An insulating body insertable into a housing to form a plug-in connector for a cable or a printed circuit board and comprising
- a dopant-containing first component having an axially oriented shape and a surface coating of multiple, stacked conductive layers of more than one conductive material,
- a non-conducting second component including therethrough (i) an axially oriented cavity receiving, and matching the shape of, the surface coated first component and (ii) parallel to the cavity, a least one recess for mounting therein an electrical contact for connecting an electrical conductor of the cable or printed circuit board,
- wherein the surface coating layers together constitute an electromagnetic shield for the contact element when received in the recess.
