Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a connector comprising a continuity recovery system.
  • connectors for cables of the Voice, Data, Images (V.D.I.) type. It is for example a connector comprising an RJ45 socket and an output connected to an unsheathed end of a cable.
  • the outlet for connection to the stripped end of the cable notably comprises a removable grommet device for connecting the wires of the cable to dedicated terminals of the connector.
  • the terminals of the connector are of the self-stripping type to allow electrical connection during assembly of the wire-passing device to the rest of the connector.
  • This type of connector thus allows the connection and routing of multimedia streams in homes or offices.
  • the cables used are frequently equipped with an electrical continuity wire which must be connected to a mass and/or the "earth" and/or to an external shielding of the connector.
  • Connecting the electrical continuity wire to the outer shield can be tricky. Specific connection parts are required which can complicate the assembly of the cable in the outlet.
  • the present invention aims to solve all or part of the drawbacks mentioned above.
  • the present invention relates to a connector comprising a socket and an output configured to be connected to a cable, the output comprising conductive terminals electrically connected to the socket and a removable grommet device.
