  • the invention relates to an electrical Connector, for connection with a suitable one Mating connector, with the following features: It is a insulating housing with a variety of electrical Contacts for connection to complementary contacts of the mating connector that can be accommodated in the insulating housing provided at least one short-circuit contact adjacent to the contacts in this way in the insulating housing arranged that at least two of the contacts with the short-circuit contact can be short-circuited, the contacts are short-circuited with the short-circuit contact if the Connection of the contacts to the complementary contacts of the Mating connector is released.
  • an electrical Connector for connection with a suitable one Mating connector, with the following features: It is a insulating housing with a variety of electrical Contacts for connection to complementary contacts of the mating connector that can be accommodated in the insulating housing provided at least one short-circuit contact adjacent to the contacts in this way in the insulating housing arranged that at least two of the contacts with the short-circuit contact can be short-circuited, the contacts are short-circuited with the short-circuit contact if the Connection of the contacts to the complementary contacts of the Mating connector is released, the short-circuit contacts are as Conductor tracks on a printed circuit board trained, the contact surfaces with the short-circuiting contacts are connectable.
  • the short-circuit contacts are little Take up space in the electrical connector housing. This is achieved in that the short-circuit contacts as Conductor tracks on both sides of a printed Circuit card are arranged. This will also help achieved that the printed circuit board at least on one of the end faces has contact surfaces and with the contact surfaces in the spring travel or at the end of the Travel of the short-circuited contacts in the insulating Housing is arranged.
  • the Short circuit contacts on the printed circuit board further operations on signal handling performed can be.
  • the Electronic components are, for example, resistors End termination or capacitors for filtering in Telephone connectors.
  • the switching time of the short circuit for the contacts to be short-circuited can.
  • the Contact areas on the printed circuit board are arranged so discontinuously that not all Contacts are short-circuited at the same time.
  • the arrangement of the Contacting areas on the printed circuit board like this can be selected so that at least two of the contacts remain short-circuited for a long time until the receivable connector completely in the insulating housing of the connector is recorded.
  • Figure 1 is a section through a multi-pole electrical connector, here a Telephone connector, shown.
  • an isolating Housing 1 is a multiplicity of electrical contacts 2, 3 arranged.
  • the electrical contacts 2, 3 all have a resilient area 6.
  • the resilient area 6 is made for all contacts 2, 3 the same, so that the resilient areas 6 form a plane.
  • the resilient Area 6 ends with a free end 7 in the insulating Housing 1.
  • the electrical contacts 2, 3 are in one Insert 8 pre-assembled. In a separate one All contacts 2, 3, which are in the insulating housing 1 are used, in separate Insert 8 cast or clamped. This will achieved that all contacts 2, 3 all the same are aligned and easily in the insulating housing 1 can be used.

  • the contact surfaces 18 are on one End face 14 arranged in a line. It is also conceivable, individual contact surfaces 18 on others Arrange end faces of the circuit card 11 so that for example a connection with a shield or another part of the housing 1 can be manufactured. If the contact surfaces 18 on the end face 14 not in a line, but arranged discontinuously is achieved that, when removing the Mating connector from the receptacle 15 not all contacts 2, 3 be short-circuited at the same time.

  • the resilient areas 6 are in a light tensioned or non-tensioned state when the Mating connector not included in the insulating housing 1 is.
  • the resilient areas 6 are completely tensioned state when the mating connector is completely in insulating housing 1 is added.
  • the springy Areas 6 can also be in a non-tense State when the mating connector is not in the insulating housing 1 is introduced. In this case the printed circuit board 11 with the Contacting surface 18 at the end of the spring travel resilient areas 6 arranged.
