Definitions

  • the present invention relates generally to electrical connectors and in particular to high transmission speed communication connectors.
  • One particularly advantageous flexible interconnect system is set out in EP 274 487 .
  • the building wiring is terminated in an edge-card connector.
  • the edge-card connector is then mounted in a wall box.
  • An interface insert that includes a common printed circuit board (PCB) with a standardized edge-card interface corresponding to the edge-card connector is provided.
  • This insert further includes a communications connector mounted thereupon that is set in a mounting bezel so that as the insert is plugged into the edge-card, the bezel is received in the box.
  • an insert with a different connector is incorporated onto the PCB and by exchanging the inserts, access to the building wiring is provided for various equipment interfaces. This provides the flexibility necessary to accommodate the many different types of equipment that are used within buildings today.
  • This cabling is known as foil shielded twisted-pair, screened foil shielded twisted-pair and pair in metal foil twisted-pair.
  • These various shielding or screening techniques are used in order to try to prevent any outside influences from effecting the signal being transmitted along the cable and/or a particular twisted-pair. It is not uncommon, over the life of the building, for the internal wiring to be upgraded.
  • EP 0 809 331 A1 describes a multipolar connector system including an outlet and at least one connector for electrical and mechanical connection of electrical conductors.
  • the connector includes a connector housing and a plurality of guide bodies disposed in the connector housing.
  • the guide bodies are configured to receive two conductor contacts therein.
  • EP 0 735 612 A1 describes a shielded connector for terminating a plurality of conductors.
  • the connector includes a connector housing, a conductor holding block, and a conductor shield.
  • the conductor holding block is supported by the connector housing and has contact slots for receiving insulation displacement contacts.
  • the conductor shield is positioned within the holding block to overlie the insulation displacement contacts.
  • the present invention addresses the aforementioned objects by providing a high frequency connector with: a main housing having an open mounting side, a cable side and a partition at the cable side defining two compartments where each compartment is in communication with the mounting side and the cable side; a plurality of contacts, where a pair of contacts are positioned in the compartments such that the contacts are exposed for mating with a complementary electrical interface on the mating side and wires of a cable on the cable side; and a rear cover that is fittable to the main housing on the cable side in order to close the open cable side and cover the exposed contacts therein where the cover further includes a second partition configured to mechanically and electrically engage the partition of the main housing where the two partitions are conductive and act as a shield between the two compartments.
  • this connector can be configured as an edge-card connector.
  • main housing and the cover can be conductive or metallized plastic to provide complete shielding of the interconnections within the connector and in particular individually shield the compartments.
  • compartments can be provided with a wire exit having a metallized saddle where any foil or screening about a twisted wire pair would sit such that shielding continuity would exist between the cable and the screening at a given compartment.
  • partitions are formed with tongues having chamfered surfaces thereupon that abut with one another along the chamfers to assure shielding continuity between the compartments.
  • a building wiring system interface utilizing the present invention is shown generally at 2.
  • This building wiring system consists of a cable 4 having multiple signal conductors 6 in the form of twisted wires 8 that are surrounded by individual shielding 10, which could take on the form of a foil.
  • the conductors 6 are terminated by an electrical connector 12 incorporating the present invention.
  • the electrical connector 12 includes a main housing 14 having an edge-card receiving slot 16 and a rear cover 18.
  • the connector 12 further includes a latch 20 for retaining the connector 12 in an access box 22. While the connector 12 utilizes an integrally molded latch 20, for snapping the connector 12 into the box 22, other mounting techniques may be used, such as a screw or other fastener.
  • the box 22 is a rectangular shell having a forward opening 24, a rear end 26 and a cable exit 28.
  • the forward end includes latches 30 for retaining an insert 32 therein.
  • the insert 32 includes a PCB 34 having a rear end 36 formed as a card edge with multiple conductors 38 thereupon.
  • a connector 40 is incorporated onto the PCB 34.
  • this connector 40 is a modular jack receptacle and provides an interface 42 for receiving a modular jack plug (not shown).
  • the interface 42 is surrounded by a bezel 44 that includes latch arms 46 to engage latches 30 in box 22 when the insert 32 is placed within the box 22.
  • a rear cover 48 is provided to close the rear end 26 of the box 22 once the connector 12 is mounted therein.
  • the rear cover 48 includes a tab 50 that is received within the slot 28 of box 22 when the cover 48 is affixed thereto.
  • the tab 50 in cooperation with the edges of the slot 28, engages the cable 4 to provide strain relief and possibly grounding of any general shielding of the cable 4 to the box 22.
  • the electrical connector 12 according to the present invention is shown mounted within the box 22.
  • the box 22 includes a mounting wall 52 which is engaged by the latch 20 for retaining the connector 12 therein.
  • the connector box 22 is conductive, either by having been formed from a conductive material or a metallized plastic, and the connector 12 is also advantageously formed of conductive material, such as metallized plastic, by placing the connector 12 within the box 22, the connector 12 will be electrically commoned thereto. This will have further advantageous effects.
  • the electrical connector 12 incorporates a main housing 14.
  • the main housing 14 has a mating side 54 which in this example includes the card receiving slot 16 ( Figure 1 ). It is important to note that while the present invention can be advantageously used in a card-edge connector style, that the invention should not be limited.
  • the main housing 14 also includes an open cable side 56 that is divided into a plurality of compartments 58 by partitions 60.
  • the main housing 14 will be formed from a conductive material or metallized plastic.
  • a plurality of contact carrying modules 62 are constructed to be received within compartments 58.
  • the contact carrying modules 62 include opposing latches 64 so that they can be snapped in place within the main housing 14.
  • the contact carrying module 62 is advantageously formed of insulative material although selective metallization could be used if desired.
  • Each contact carrying module 62 includes two contacts 66 that are best seen and described in Figures 4 and 5 . These contacts 66 include a mating end and a wire termination end 70.
  • the connector 12 further includes a rear cover 18 that is fittable to the main housing 14 by a pair of latch arms 72 designed to engage corresponding catches 74 upon the main housing 14.
  • the cover 18 further includes multiple U-shaped cable tabs 76. It is also envisioned that tabs 76 may be omitted.
  • the rear cover 18 will also be manufactured from a conductive material or advantageously a metallized plastic.
  • the contact 66 includes a mating end 68 that, in this embodiment, is a resilient tongue for engaging the conductive pads 38 of the card edge 36. Various configurations of this mating end 68 may be realized depending on the interface desired.
  • the contact 66 further includes a cable termination end 70 that is formed as an insulation displacement contact (IDC).
  • the IDC includes a wire receiving slot 78 for receiving an insulated wire and making connection thereto, as is well known in the industry.
  • the wire termination end 70 could take on various other configurations, such as a crimp connection or a solder termination.
  • a body section 80 is located between the mating end 68 and the wire termination end 70.
  • the body portion 80 includes a retention lance 82 for incorporating the contact 66 into the contact carrying module 62.
  • Various materials may be used for the contact 66 as desired and it may be advantageous to include a precious metal contact patch 85 for engaging the conductive pads 38 of the card edge 36.
  • the body 84 carries the two latches 64 extending from a front surface 86 thereof.
  • the latches 64 retain a contact carrying module 62 within the main housing 14 in a manner best seen in Figure 10 .
  • the body 84 includes a rear IDC portion 88 having a pair of contact passageways 90 that extend through the body 84 and open at the front surface 86 so that a contact 66 may be disposed therein (best seen in Figure 10 ).
  • a wire receiving slot 92 extends across the IDC termination portion 88 and the associated contact passageways 90 and is constructed for receiving the individual wires 8 of the twisted-pair conductors 6 therein.
  • guide slots 94 that extend into the module 84 basically parallel to the contact receiving passageways 90. These guide slots 94, along with large chamfers 96 on both sides of the wire receiving slots 92, are useful for stabilizing a wire termination tool (not shown) that would be used to stuff the insulated wires into the IDC contact slot 70 of the contact 66 in a manner well known in industry.
  • the open cable side 56 of the main housing 14 is shell-like and defined by a lower wall 98, opposing side walls 100, 102 and upper wall 103.
  • This shell-like open cable side 56 is further divided into a row of compartments 58 by partitions 60 that extend between the lower wall 98 and the upper wall 103.
  • the partitions 60 are formed as tongues having a chamfered surface 104 extending on a side thereof to an end 106 of the tongue 60.
  • the end 106 of tongue 60 is slightly recessed from the open cable side 56 of the connector 14.
  • Each compartment 58 further includes a table 108 having an inverted, U-shaped, end 110 defining a passageway 112 thereunder and a passageway 114 thereover.
  • the passageway 114 extends through the housing 14 to the mating side 54 while the passageway 112 exposes a latch 116 for retaining the contact carrying module 62.
  • the table 108 is used to position the contact module 62 within the main housing 14.
  • the upper wall 103 is considerably thicker than the lower wall 98 or the side walls 100, 102 in this embodiment. The reason for this is that the upper wall 103 carries at least a first portion of a wire exit saddle 118.
  • the first portion of this wire exit saddle 118 includes a pair of scalloped saddle surfaces 120 that are separated by a tab receiving trough 122 that extends into the wall 103 for receiving the U-shaped tabs 76 of the cover 18, as will be described below.
  • the main housing 14 would either be manufactured from a conductive material or molded from plastic and metallized such that the main housing 14 would provide shielding or anything received therein.
  • the end cover 18 that is constructed to close the open cable side 56 of the main housing 14 will be described in greater detail.
  • the end cover 18 includes latches 72 to engage the catches 30 of the main housing in order to fix the cover 18 to the main housing 14.
  • the cover 18 includes a body portion 124 having a rearward side 126 and a connector side 128. An interior surface 130 of the rearward side 126 faces the connector side 128.
  • a trough-like structure is formed.
  • the trough-like structure is further divided into compartments 58A by second partitions 60A that correspond to the partitions 60 of the main housing 14, as will be described below with reference to Figures 11 and 12 .
  • the second partition 60A also include chamfers 104A that extend along sides of the partition 60A to ends 142. It is important to note that at least a portion of the chamfer 104A of the partition 60A extends beyond the connector surface 128 in order to provide the ends 142 of the partition 60 with some flexibility. In this particular embodiment, the second partition 60A itself extends a small distance 144 beyond the connector edge 128. Further, the end 142 of the partitions extends upwards to a ledge 146 such that the second partitions 60A would be received between the lower wall 98 and the upper wall 103 of the main housing 14 when the cover 18 is fitted thereto.
  • the cover 18 would be manufactured from a conductive material or a metallized plastic mold.
  • a portion 148 of the partition 60A extends above the ledge 146 to be received within slots 150 formed in the upper wall 103 of the main housing 14 that correspond to the partition 60 therein.
  • a plurality of U-shaped tabs 76 located along the upper wall 140 of the cover 18 are a plurality of U-shaped tabs 76 constructed to be received within the troughs 122 of the main housing 14. These legs of the U-shaped tabs 76 may take on various lengths as desired and provide some strain relief for the twisted-pair wire 6 and discontinuity in any pathway. As mentioned above, these tabs 76 are optional.
  • a second saddle portion 152 At the base of the U-shaped tab 76 is a second saddle portion 152 that will be disposed opposite the first saddle portion 118 in the main housing 14.
  • the electrical connector 12 is shown in partially assembled form.
  • the contact carrying modules 62, with the contacts 66 therein, are shown received within the main housing 14.
  • the cover 18 is positioned to be mounted upon the main housing 14.
  • the partition 60A will be received between adjacent contact carrying modules 62 and the upper portions 148 of the partition 60A will be received in the slots 150.
  • reliefs 154 may be provided in the rear surface 126.
  • the electrical connector 12 is shown in assembled form.
  • the contact carrying module 62 with the contact 66 is fitted to the housing 14 by the latch members 64 engaging corresponding latches 116 formed in the main housing 14.
  • the contact 66 extends through the contact carrying passageway 90 such that the mating end 68 is disposed in the card edge receiving slot 16 on the mating end 54 of the main housing 14.
  • the contact 66 is retained therein by the locking lance 82 that is received in a recess 156 of the body 84 in order to further retain the contact 66.
  • a staking operation can be performed that utilizes the recess 158 above the contact lance 82 prior to assembling of the module 62 with the main housing 14 to further assure contact retention.
  • the main housing has been assembled to the extent shown in Figure 9 .
  • a wire exit 160 is defined by the two saddle portions 120, 152 of the main housing 14 and cover 18 respectively for each of the compartments 58.
  • This wire exit 160 is configured to be slightly smaller than that of the wires exiting such that an interference will exist. This interference is advantageously taken advantage of by allowing the shielding 10 that surrounds the wires 8 to extend into the compartment and be terminated only slightly above the rear IDC portion 88 of the contact module 62 when the various conductors 6 are being terminated.
  • this space 164 and the associated partition walls are extremely thin and, hence, some flexibility of the partitions 60, 60A is realized. Furthermore, it is this space requirement that prevents easily manufacturing these partitions as a single piece extending outward from either the cover 18 or the housing 14 exclusively.
  • a shielding partition is formed between adjacent compartments 58.
  • what is realized from the present invention is a structure that continues the shielding 10 provided to the twisted pair of wires 8 to a compartment 58 within a connector 12 such that a fully shielded twisted-pair interconnection is provided, thereby greatly reducing the effect of cross-talk from adjacent signal conductors 6 and any spurious electro-magnetic fields.
