20090098777 | Alien crosstalk preventive cover - A conductive cover or shield for reducing crosstalk between a plurality of connectors arranged adjacent one another. A cover having a non-conductive interior surface and a conductive outer surface. The non-conductive surface is adhered to the exterior surface of a connector or a plurality of IDC towers for preventing crosstalk between adjacent connectors. Also, the cover can be form fitted and secured to the connectors, specifically, adhering to the corners to insulate any loose wires. | 04-16-2009 |
20100151707 | Electrical connector with separate contact mounting and compensation boards - An electrical connector includes a housing having a plug receiving cavity with an open end for receiving a plug and with an inner end spaced from the open end, and having a forward chamber outside of the cavity and adjacent the open end. A mounting circuit board is in the housing adjacent the inner end. A plurality of pairs of electrical jack contacts have mounting ends engaging the mounting circuit board, plug contacting portions extending through the cavity from the mounting end toward the open end, and free ends extending from the contacting portion into the forward chamber. A compensation circuit board is mounted in the forward chamber of the housing outside of the plug receiving cavity, and has a compensation circuit with conductive pads. The free ends of the jack contacts engage the conductive pads. A spring in the forward chamber biases the compensation circuit board towards the free ends of the jack contacts. | 06-17-2010 |
20100151710 | TELECOMMUNICATIONS CONNECTOR PANEL WITH INTERPORT CROSSTALK ISOLATION - A multi-port telecommunications connector panel has an electrically conductive housing that defines a plurality of ports, each with a plug receiving cavity aligned with a respective set of jack contacts. The housing surrounds the sets of jack contacts individually and collectively to separate and isolate adjacent ports. Electrically conductive isolation barriers, which are electrically connected to and may be integral with the housing, separate adjacent sets of insulation displacement contacts, which are arranged in an offset pattern. | 06-17-2010 |
20110131805 | Electrical connector with low-stress, reduced-electrical-length contacts - An electrical connector adapted to receive a mating plug utilizes low-profile jack terminal contacts that can flex in their PCB-anchored base portions, which are substantially parallel to the PCB. Any bend in the distal connecting portion or in the intermediate transition portion of each terminal contact is gradual and forms an obtuse angle, thus minimizing stress concentrations. The contacts preferably are arranged in two oppositely facing and interdigitating rows of four contacts each. In one embodiment, the terminal contacts are anchored to the PCB by a contact cradle that constrains the base portion of each terminal contact at two spaced anchoring locations, allowing the base portion to flex therebetween. In another embodiment, the base portions of the terminal contacts are embedded in at least one elastomeric member, which is fitted to the PCB. | 06-09-2011 |
20130077927 | Cable Enclosure and Radius-Limiting Cable Guide with Integral Magnetic Door Catch - A door catch arrangement for cable enclosures incorporates magnetic catch components on the door and on an adjacent open-ended, flared, radius-limiting cable guide installed in at least one open-ended cable port of the enclosure. The cable guide itself covers the rim of the cable port and has two spaced legs, each leg having an end face disposed at the open end of the cable port. A recess in one of the end faces holds a magnet. In its closed position, the door blocks the end of the cable port and a ferromagnetic catch portion on the door opposes the magnet, which keeps the door closed. The positions of the magnet and the ferromagnetic catch portion can be reversed. | 03-28-2013 |

20140273655 | Plug Relief For Electrical Jack - An electrical jack includes a housing having an opening in a front face thereof. A cavity in the housing receives a plug inserted through the opening. A plurality of contact pins are disposed in the housing. A relief pocket is disposed rearwardly of the front face. First and second guide rails are disposed in the housing to guide a non-complementary plug into the relief pocket to substantially prevent damage to the plurality of contact pins. | 09-18-2014 |
20160006202 | Integrated Modular Multimedia System in Wall-Box Format - An electrical module provides a plug receptacle for AC power and also converts AC power into DC power and provides DC output. The module may also provide one or more multimedia connectors. DC power may be provided from one module to another such that a single DC power supply may supply DC power for multiple modules. | 01-07-2016 |
