| 20120064743 | ELECTRICAL CONNECTOR HAVING A GROUND CLIP - An electrical connector includes a housing having a front and a rear opposite the housing with a rear wall at the rear. The housing has a slot open through the front that receives a mating connector therein. The housing has contact openings through the rear wall and a ground clip channel in the rear wall open at the rear. Signal contacts are held in the housing and arranged in pairs. The signal contacts are received in corresponding contact openings and are arranged within the slot to mate with the mating connector. Ground contacts are held in the housing and are arranged between corresponding signal contacts. The ground contacts are received in corresponding contact openings and are arranged within the slot to mate with the mating connector. A ground clip is loaded into the ground clip channel. The ground clip engages the ground contacts to create a ground circuit between the ground contacts engaged by the ground clip. | 03-15-2012 |
| 20110237137 | ELECTRICAL CONTACT FOR AN ELECTRICAL CONNECTOR MOUNTED ON A PRINTED CIRCUIT - An electrical contact is provided for an electrical connector that is mounted on a printed circuit. The electrical contact includes a mating segment having a mating interface configured to engage a mating contact of another connector. The electrical contact also includes a tail segment having a mounting interface configured to be mounted to the printed circuit. An intermediate segment extends between and interconnects the mating and tail segments. The intermediate segment includes a base wall extending a length from the tail segment to the mating segment. The intermediate segment further includes a side wall extending outwardly from the base wall along at least a portion of the length of the base wall. The side wall extends outwardly at a non-parallel angle relative to the base wall for affecting at least one of an impedance, an insertion loss, or a reflection of the electrical contact. | 09-29-2011 |
| 20090029590 | HIGH PERFORMANCE COAXIAL CONNECTOR - A high performance coaxial connector used to terminate a coaxial cable and provide an electrical connection to a mating coaxial connector is disclosed. The coaxial connector is formed with few individual parts and may be configured to provide enhanced electrical performance greater than or equal to 4 GHz. | 01-29-2009 |
