New Description: [Technical Fields of New Type 3 Related Applications References This application claims priority from the following application: Application for February 18, 2009 Case No. 61/153, 579, Application No. 61/170,956 on April 20, 2009, Application No. 61/171,037 on April 20, 2009 and Application No. 61/ on April 20, 2009 Case No. 171,066. This new type relates to a multi-plug connector system. This is generally related to connectors suitable for transferring data, and more specifically to input/input (I/O) connectors suitable for dense connector fabrics. [Prior Art 3 New Background A relatively continuous aspect of recent communications development is the need to increase performance. As such, there has been a continuing need to minimize (e.g., increase density) objects. These requirements create problems for I/O connectors used in data communications. The use of high frequencies (to help increase data rate) requires good electrical separation between the signal terminals in a connector (e.g., 'to minimize crosstalk). However, making the connector more compact (e.g., making the terminal configuration more compact) brings the terminals closer to each other and tends to reduce electrical separation, which may result in signal degradation. In addition to increasing performance requirements, there is a need for improved manufacturing. For example, the tolerances of these terminal locations and their physical properties become more important as the signal frequency increases. Therefore, improvements in a connector design that facilitate manufacturing while still providing a dense, high performance connector will be appreciated. 3 Application No. 99201569 Revision date: 100.03.01. In addition, there is a need to increase the density of I/O connectors, and this is difficult to achieve without increasing the width of the connectors. Increasing the width of these connectors results in difficulties in installing the connectors in standard width routers and/or servers, and will require a user to purchase non-standard devices that accommodate such wider connectors. Therefore, there is a need for an improved connector design.

At one level, a connector having a housing is provided that covers a plurality of circuit cards with conductors of the cable terminated along the trailing edge of the circuit cards. The leading edges of the circuit cards have a plurality of conductive contact pads disposed thereon and they provide contact points to the plurality of terminals. The circuit cards in these connectors can be configured in one or more vertical stacks to not increase the overall width of the connector, but still increase the density of the circuit available to the connector. The connector can be assembled in a horizontal direction, meaning that the left and right housing side members are provided in a single connector. For multiple connector housings, such as a series configuration, left, right, and center members are provided. The housing members may be horizontally joined along the center n of the connector or the upper and lower abutting faces of the line that can be offset from the center: the two secret members of the branch member are fastened to the (four) device The ribbed 2 abuts the front abutting portion of the connector, and the other abuts the rear body portion of the β hai connector. The front fastening device can be in the form of a malleable member. The malleable M406822, application number 99201569, date of revision: 100.03.01. The member extends horizontally between the walls of the various housing members and is substantially transverse a longitudinal axis of the connector and having a head extending through a hole in one of the two connector housing halves, which can be swaged to hold the two connector housings half together. Preferably, the rear fastening means is in the form of a collar, and the yoke collar surrounds at least more than half of the circumference of the rear of the connector to hold the connecting members together. In this manner, the two fastening devices ensure that the connector housings in the vicinity of the cable entry location and the front docking regions covering the 'butt edge cards are held together in a reliable manner. This configuration reduces the number of fastening members required to assemble the connector and securely hold it together, and their construction does not increase the overall size of the connector. At another level, the connector structure can be used as a co-control or series connector without excessively increasing the width of the connector portion of the connector. This is accomplished by using a center piece located between and abutting the left and right connector housing halves. The center member includes at least one slot extending rearwardly from a leading edge of the center member at the mating end of the connector to divide the front end of the connector into two separate abutting portions. A plurality of centerpieces can be assembled with the right and left connector halves to expand the number of distinct mating portions of the connector, and such expanded connectors can utilize the left, center, and right parts of the connector component standard stock Made into virtually any width. In an example where a connector uses multiple docking portions, the circuit cards in each of the docking and portions can be configured in a common vertical spacing. Fasteners can be applied to hold the connector housings together and occupy an intermediary space between the circuit cards. The (equal) vertical space due to the separation of the circuit cards is 5, the application date of the amendment No. 99201569, date 100.03.01. Commonly used to accommodate a fastening device, adjacent butting portions are identical to each other. In yet another aspect, the rear fastening device that holds the connecting members together includes a continuous securing strap, or collar, which mounts the connecting devices in an enclosed manner. The connector housing can include a channel: or a recess extending at least partially around the circumference of the housing and the stationary collar is received in the recess. The fixed collar can include an inwardly depending engagement arm that engages a slot formed in the housing recess and adjacent the rear stop surface of the slot to retain the collar in position on the connector, And for all practical purposes, the connector housing is a single connector housing that is permanently held together. In another embodiment, the rear fastening means can be a -C or U-shaped fastener 'using a viewing ring' that engages the peripheral portion of the splicing housing. In this configuration, the fastener has a - trunk portion extending between the two free ends. The free ends include one or more engagement tabs that engage the connector housing. The fastener is preferably extended at its two free ends by more than a half of the circumference to apply a compressive force to the connector housing members. - At a further level, the connector is provided with a plurality of abutting portions, at least one pair of top and bottom flanges being on the butt surface. Preferably, the mating surface of the mat is provided with a circuit card line supported by the leading edge of the pair of contacts and a flange extending to the rear edge of the connector 77 to be terminated: = 'in the case' The circuit card and the other circuit card are connected by an intermediate ^, and the vertical stack 4 is realized - the increased connector density is 1 M406822. The application date of the amendment No. 99201569 is 100.03.01. It is possible to increase the width thereof. The left and right connector halves can be snapped together by fasteners that extend horizontally in the intervening space between the circuit cards.

As can be appreciated, the connector assemblies include a fastener between two parallel circuit cards. The fasteners hold the connector housings in place and depending on their position, the fasteners can also be used as stops to prevent the connector from being over-inserted into the mating connector (thus helping to prevent Excessive force applied to the terminals and/or the circuit cards). It can be appreciated that this allows the circuit card position to be controlled with a high degree of accuracy while minimizing component costs. And because the connector portion with the circuit card will be in the docking socket, no shielding problem will occur.

It should be noted that although the circuit card is referred to herein for the convenience of discussion, the butt strips are not limited thereto and may be, for example, - an electric ore plastic or the like. The circuit card is docked and joined to the conductive terminals of a pair of mating connections to connect the terminals to the wires 616 of the battery 615. In this regard, the circuit cards 6〇7 are configured in a vertically spaced manner as disclosed in the form of a "switching card" as is conventional in the art, and are preferably parallel to each other. In this way, the number of circuits in the connector 6A that are connected to a relatively docking connector (not shown) is boosted (in the illustrated configuration, the number of ghai is doubled) without increasing the connection. The lateral dimensions of the 6 〇〇. In this regard, it should be noted that although two circuit cards are shown, in an embodiment, the connector can be easily assembled in a similar fashion to accept three or more circuit cards. The vertical orientation of the connector housing body portion 604 allows the wire cables 615 of the terminals of the connector 600 to be vertically disposed, preferably stacked one on top of the other such that the width of the connector does not increase. As described below, the connector housing 601 is provided with a specially assembled rear end for securely clamping the battery 615' and holding the cable 615 in its preferred vertical orientation. It should be > the idea, although the two wire cables are depicted (for example, one per circuit card), M406822 No. 99201569, the date of amendment: 100.03.01. A single wire cable can also be used, if a full small size The wires are used. As can be appreciated, the retention features of the connector used to include the two conductor cables can also be used for a single conductor cable. The connector housing body portion 604 is larger in size, particularly in height dimension, than its adjacent narrow abutment portion 605. Thus, the body portion 6〇4 has a higher height than the docking portion 605. The interior of the connector housing 6.1 includes a central lumen 602' as best shown in Figures 7 and 13. The inner cavity 602 occupies a majority of the connector housing 601, particularly the body portion 6〇4, but communicates with the hollow recessed portion 6〇6 bounded by the connector housing abutment portion 605. A connector housing 601 is formed by two different portions depicted as two housing halves 61, 6n, respectively configured as left and right housing halves, or first and second housing halves, respectively . If desired, the two housing halves 610, 611 can be mirror images of each other. The housing halves 610, 611 are grouped together in a horizontal or lateral direction and held together by opposing at least two different fastening means along opposite abutments, or vertical faces. The front fastening device 612 is configured to be adjacent to the connector housing abutment portion 605, and the rear fastening device 620 is preferably disposed in the connector housing body portion. It can be seen from the figures that the two fastening devices exert a holding force laterally on the connector housing 6〇1, which holds the first and second connector housings of the housing 601. The half portions 61〇, 611 are held together by butt joint. The retaining force is desirably a compression, or clamping force, to bring the two connector housing halves into contact with one another along opposite vertical mating faces that extend longitudinally through the connector housing 6〇1. As in the embodiment of Figure _7, the abutting faces are aligned along a vertical axis and coincide with a longitudinal centerline of the connector, but it should be understood that the pair of wires can be offset, i.e., 12 M406822 The bottom edge of the connector housing half 61 of the application No. 99201569 can be compared to that shown in the embodiment of Figures 27-31.

The figure extends further, such as to apply the required holding force to the mating portion 60 5 of the connector, the splicing device may include a horizontally extending buckle 630 (Figure 7). The rod can be cylindrical or square. The two housing halves themselves are suitably made by casting, boring and so that the fastening rod 630 can be cast integrally with one of the two housing halves 61. The rod 630 is illustrated as having a narrow swage projection 63 丨 at its free end 632 that is preferably received in a corresponding opening 633 in the opposing connector half-shell 611. When the two housing halves are assembled, the projections (3) are weird in the gate or form a dead point to create a connection. Preferably, the rod 630 is integrally formed with one of the two housing halves 61 to facilitate manufacture and assembly, but alternatively a conventionally separated fastener member, such as a screw and threaded projection, may alternatively be used. Seat, or rivets. In the non-embodied embodiment, the first fastening device 612 is preferably located in a vertical interposer space disposed between the two circuit cards 607a, 607b, and advantageously, does not increase the total of the connector housing docking portion 605. Height, but takes advantage of the space used to separate the two circuit cards 6〇7a, 607b. The circuit card 6〇7a, 607b has a contact pad 607c disposed along the leading edge 6〇7f for connection to a terminal of a relatively mating connector and configured along the trailing edge 607g for connection to the terminal to the connector cable 615 Wire 616. As shown in Fig. 7, the positioning of the front fastening bar 63 between the two circuit cards 607a, 607b also allows the lever 630 to act as a stop to limit the connector 6 can be inserted into an opposite socket connection. The scope of the device. As described above, the connector housing body portion 604 is particularly larger than the salt body abutting portion 6〇5 in its height. This is advantageous because the electrical cable 615 is allowed to be stacked vertically or configured when the rear of the connector housing 601 enters the body portion at 13 M406822 No. 99201569, date of revision: 100.03.01. In this manner, an increase in circuit density in the connector 600 does not result in an increase in the width of the connector. In this regard, the connector housing body portion 604 preferably has an irregular polygonal configuration, such as the trapezoidal structure shown in the first i-i5 diagram, but a regular polygon such as a rectangular body or the embodiment of Figures 27-31. A stepped fabric can also be used.

and for engaging the two housing halves 61, 611. The devices may take the form of recesses 607d formed on opposite sides of the cards 6〇7 to accommodate projections or cylinders (not shown) that may be in two shells Formed in the inner surface of the body halves 610, 611. The recesses 607d can also be used in embodiments in which the connector body portion is cast on the circuit cards 6A, 7a, 6A, 7b. In this example, the cast material will flow into and fill the recess 607d to hold them in place, particularly in the horizontal direction. Such a device may also take the form of a wing 607e that projects laterally outwardly from the body portion of the circuit card and that can be received in a slot 6070 formed in the two connector housing halves 610' 611. The circuit card wings 607e are received in corresponding slots 6〇7〇 formed in the two connector housing halves 610,611. The wings 607e have a lateral dimension sufficient to provide reliable support in the connector housing and allow the circuit card to be wider at the wings 607e than the leading edges of the circuit cards. Preferably, however, it is not so large that the edges of the wings protrude excessively past the outer side of the butt portion 6〇5 of the connector housing. In practice, a distance of about l.5nun (.〇45in·) provides a better support than the 14 M406822 No. 99201569 amendment period: 100.03.01. The use of this wing-and-groove configuration also facilitates a reduction in the width of a connector as compared to a connector that uses a horizontal support edge inside the connector housing. In this connector, due to the conductive nature of the die cast housing, the width of the circuit cards needs to be increased to keep the upper circuit from contacting any of the branches. The 'wing 607e as shown extends through the slot 6070 into the side wall of the connector housing without fear of any short contact occurring. Similarly, as shown in Fig. 15A, the circuit card wings 6〇7e may have different lengths, LW1&LW2, which is shorter than the length Lc of the card and recess 607d located at the leading edge of the wings 6〇7e. And the edges of the main portions of the circuit cards are misaligned with each other. This provides a polar form that helps to accurately assemble the circuit cards 607a, 607b into the connector 600. The offset distance of the wings 6〇7e (and the recesses 6〇7d) allows the circuit cards to be accurately assembled in the housing with their correct sides up without being inverted. In addition, the notches 607d are misaligned to prevent them from being aligned with each other, and the width of the circuit card in the body portion between the two notches is narrowed, which may result in the circuit cards. A weakened structural integrity. Further, a recess 607d is located on the circuit card 607 where the wings 607e intersect the side edges 607h of the main portion of the circuit cards 6A. In this manner, the front vertical edges of the slots 6 〇 85 can contact the leading edges of the wings. If the notches are not present and an I-angle intersection is provided, then the comminuted material from the recesses of the circuit cards will fill the beveled recesses and is likely to cause assembly difficulties. In fact, the notches 6 act as concave corner portions which eliminate sharp corners where the leading edge of the wing is in contact with the side edge of the main portion of the circuit card. In this embodiment, the rear snap I set 62G also applies to the two housing halves 15 M406822 No. 99201569, date of revision: 100.03.01. 610 '611 applies a holding force to hold them together. The rear fastening device 620 is in the form of a fastener 608, which preferably includes a collar portion 608d that at least partially surrounds, and preferably completely surrounds the connector 600 near the end or near the proximal end. The outer periphery or periphery of the main body portion 6〇4. As used herein, the terms "peripheral" and "surrounding" are interchangeable and refer to a range around the outer surface of the connector housing, regardless of the actual configuration of the connector housing 601. The collar portion 608d slides over the body portion 604 and preferably in a form of interference fit to engage the housing body portion 604 in a manner that presses the two housing halves together along their opposing abutment faces.一种 As shown in Fig. 6A, one type of fastener 700 can have a generally u-shape with a stem portion 701 and two legs 702 that terminate in a free end 703. The engagement member 704 can be swaged or formed on the fastener 7b to engage the recess 614b formed in the connector housing 601 and particularly formed in the housing passage 625. The fastener engaging member 7〇4 is shown in close proximity to the free end 7〇3, adjacent to the joint portion of the trunk portion 701 and a leg portion 702, and is disposed on the trunk portion itself. The length of the leg 702 is desirably such that the fastener 700 contacts more than half of the circumference of the connector housing such that the fastener of this type will exert a -clamping force on the half portions 610, 611 of the two connector housings 4. This length can be extended by a line "C" at the center of the length of the leg as shown. The rear fastening member engages the connector housing in a circumferential manner, meaning that it engages a sufficient circumference portion to exert a clamping force on the two housing halves 61G, 611. As mentioned above, this would typically require it to extend over one-half of the circumference of the connector housing to I, but it should be noted that in a square or rectangular housing, three of the four sides of the joint will provide a clip. Holding power. As shown in Fig. 6A, preferably, the fastener legs have a 16 M406822 application No. 99201569, date of revision: 100.03.01. At least some of the engagement members 704 are near their free ends. Preferably, the engaging members of the fastener are located on opposite sides of a longitudinal centerline of the connector housing. The fasteners 608 and 700 of Figures 6 and 6A engage at least three abutment faces of the connector housing. Other fasteners may also have a more rounded C-shaped configuration than the rectangular or U-shaped structure shown. As shown in Figures 6B and 6C, the fastener 770 can have a semi-circular or substantially C-shape with a stem portion 771 extending from the main cadre portion 771 by two arms terminating at the free end 772. The free ends 772 include engagement members in the form of tabs 773 that are stamped or otherwise formed on the collar 770. In this alternative embodiment, the rear end 775 of the connector housing body portion 604 can be cylindrical and include a channel 625' fastener 770 that is received in the channel 625. The fastener 770 engages a portion of the circumference of the connector housing 601, that is, the outer periphery thereof, and in order to apply a holding force to the two connector housing halves 610, 611, the arc length of the fastener 77 is "0" (or Its joint length from one free end to the other free end should be greater than 18 inches. (or greater than half of the outer periphery)' as shown in Figure 6C. The range in which the free end 772 extends through the midpoint can be seen, which is indicated by "one" in Fig. 6C. It has been determined that the connector housing body portion is configured such that it includes a recess, or channel 625 extends around the periphery of the body portion to define a receiving fastener 608, 7 or 77. Awkward passages. Channel 625 preferably has a depth greater than or equal to the thickness of the fastener such that the fastener can be flush with respect to the outer surface of the connector housing to maintain the desired size of the connector. As can be seen from Figures 3A and 3B, the rear channel 625 tapers in the lateral direction. The taper is an inward taper extending from the channel a and the connection 17 M406822 No. 99201569, the date of correction: 100.03.01. The encounter point of the main body portion 604 of the housing extends at an angle "AC1". And cooperate with the overlying fastener to provide a desired clamping force to the connector housing, as will be described below. It can be seen that the first fastening device horizontally applies a linear fastening force along the line F of the i-th figure, and the second fastening device applies a line F 2 along the line F2 of the i-th diagram in the horizontal and vertical directions. Tangential force. The fastener 6 〇 8 of the connector is also gradually tapered, and the tapered shape is tapered inward in the lateral direction from a reference line shown in Figs. 3A and 3B by an angle "AC2". In order to provide a reliable interference fit and a lateral clamping force for holding the cables in position within the body portion of the connector housing, preferably, the taper angle AC2 is greater than the taper angle AC1 such that the fastener 621 is The collar portions 6〇8d are slightly elastically deformed, and are subjected to tension when a compressive force is applied to the two housing halves 61, 611. The same compression force pair configuration can be provided by means other than the use of a cone, such as by the full outer diameter or circumference of the connector housing, the difference between the total internal or circumferential length of the fixed shaft And provided by other devices. The collar portion 608d can have a & tab 614a formed therein, such as by stamping. The engaging tabs 614a are preferably formed as shown, over the opposing extent of the retaining collar, and four such tabs 614a are configured to be adjacent to the corners of the retaining collar. Although illustrated as being formed in the vertical wall portion thereof, the engaging tabs 614a may be formed in the horizontal wall portion thereof. Preferably, the engagement tabs 614a are disposed on opposite sides of a longitudinal centerline of the connector housing. The engagement tabs 614a assist in retaining the collar 621 on the connector housing body portion 604. The connector housing body portion 604 includes a plurality of recesses 18 M406822 No. 99201569, the date of revision of the application: 100_〇3.〇·|, or the groove 614b is formed on the outer surface of the body portion 604, and such The four portions correspond in number to the grooves of the engaging tabs 614a such that a single engaging tab is received in a single recess 614b. The recesses 6i4b have shoulders 618 that serve as stop faces for the engagement tab free ends 619 to compress. This opposing relationship serves to hold the collar in place in the passage near the end of the body portion 604. As shown in Fig. 4, the recess 614b can have a variable depth that increases toward the rear of the recess 618. When the connector is connected, or when the device is disconnected, the interference holds the collar in place on the connector housing and prevents it from being disengaged. The engaging tabs and recesses are preferably located at the corners or free ends of their respective fasteners. In this regard, the member 6〇8 can be seen as attached to the connector housing 'in order to remove it, it needs to be opened or detached. Further, the structure and orientation of the (10) tab and (4) are such that the fastener can be applied to the joint (4) to be formed or first formed and then joined to the end of the passage 625 in the passage 625. As shown in Figures 1, 2 and 6, the fastener 608 can include an operable longitudinal flash lock arm 6_ terminating in a free end, the free ends 6G8b being - obliquely laterally spaced apart from each other (4) hook green. The general structure of the component is explained in the case of U.S. Patent No. 7,281,937, issued on October 16, the present invention, which is owned by the assignee of the present (4) case, and the entire contents of which are incorporated herein. This article is considered as a reference. The flash hooks 608c are received in corresponding openings formed in the housing towel opposite the mating connector (not shown). Recording along the longitudinal extension of the body portion _ of the connector, and preferably extending along the top side of the body portion 604, has a particular longitudinal extent 603 (Fig. 3). - an actuator 6010 is provided for operating the flash lock 19 M406822, No. 99201569, the application of the stipulation: 100.03.01. The component has an elongated, longitudinal body portion 6〇l〇a, the body portion The portion 6010a has a pull tab or push tab 601〇b at one end and a cam surface or cam member 601〇c at its opposite end. The pull tab 6010b can have an opening 'and can include a step that facilitates pulling/pushing the tab 6010b. The actuator body portion 6010a can include a guide for at least partially holding the actuator 6010 in place on the connector 600, and the guide is depicted as a slot in the drawings 6010d, which engages a projection or the like formed on the connector housing main body portion 604, or as shown in the drawings, is formed on the collar portion 6〇8d of the fastener 608. Projection 608e. Figures 8-15 illustrate a series connector 635 that is constructed in accordance with certain embodiments. As shown, a central member 64 is provided and mated with the left and right half-shell portions 610, 611 to laterally increase the size of the connector and provide a pair of hollow butted portions 605. The body portion 604 extends outward. Each docking portion 605 includes a pair of circuit cards 607a, 607b, 607a, and 607b. Not only are the circuit cards in each pair preferably parallel (ie, in a parallel plane) and the two different pairs of circuit ends are preferably located in respective planes (ie, cards 607a and 6 are located at The same plane, while the cards 6〇7b and 607b' are located in another plane, means that the circuit cards of each pair are in different parallel planes, and each pair of circuit cards coincides with their counterparts in the other pair. The two abutting portions 605 are separated by an intermediate groove 642 extending rearward from the leading edge thereof to the front wall 644 of the body portion 6〇4. The slot 642 allows the two abutting portions 605 to be hollow enclosures having side walls 646 and top and bottom walls 647, 648, respectively, although they can serve other purposes as well. For example, the multi-function slot 642 can accommodate a partition wall 1〇〇2 that connects a 1×4 socket. 20 M406822 Application No. 99201569, date of revision: 100.03.01. Two phases of the assembly 1000 (Fig. 8A) Adjacent to the hollow slots 1〇〇4, 1〇〇5, the connector 640 is aligned with the connector assembly such that the two adjacent docking portions 605 are received in the adjacent plug The slots are 1〇〇4, 1〇〇5. However, it will be understood that the spacing between the slots allows the cable connector 635 to be mounted in any two adjacent turns (such as two turns in the middle or two in the middle) while allowing a single slot connector Installed in other slots. For example, if the connector includes three docking portions 605, the connector can be mounted on the left or right side of the receptacle connector assembly 1000 described above, and a single slot connector can be mounted in other slots. . Similarly, if the connector 635 includes four docking portions, the connector will be docked to all four slots of a four-slot jack. Naturally, a suitable combination of three, two and one cable connector can also be consuming to four slots. As the number of slots increases, the number of possible combinations also increases. Therefore, a 1 χ 6 connector, although not described, will make many possible combinations possible. As depicted, connector 635 includes a pair of fingers that are configured to engage recesses in the socket. If desired, a pair of fingers can be used for a two-ply or three-ply connector. It also provides a channel for accommodating a pair of EMI pads 649 (Fig. 21) or portions of a single hole (not shown). In addition, the groove 642 can provide a groove with respect to the free end 633 of the front fastening rod 630, and a plate can be inserted into the groove 642 to act as a reaction surface when forming the forging front button projection 631, so that the swaging The process does not cause the fastener rods to break through the inner side wall 646 of the center piece 64. Finally, the central slot 642 is also in communication with a peripheral groove 650 that extends completely around the (etc.) abutting portion and receives the spacer 649. 21 M406822 Application No. 99201569 Revision date: 100.03.01 The center piece 640 has abutting face 645 (Fig. 13) adjacent to the support faces of the two housing halves 610, 611. The connector housing can be provided with a rear partition 652 having a plurality of cable support walls 651, each of the support walls 651 including a groove 653 provided to clamp the cable 615 and Fix them in the desired vertical direction. Walls 651 are spaced from one another to provide a means of cable 615 relaxation. As shown in Fig. 23, preferably, the cable groove 653 is aligned with the front buckle, meaning that one cable 615 should be disposed just above the height of the front buckle 630, and other cables are Below. This effectively divides the inner cavity 602 into two equal regions for the cable conductors 616 to extend onto the circuit cards 607a, 607b. Since the cable conductors 616 are much smaller than the cable 615, the ladder configuration provides maximum internal space for the conductors and circuit cards, providing a minimum overall size for the connector. As illustrated, the connector 600 can include a latch assembly 660 having a latch arm 661 with a width sufficient to extend through a substantial portion of the two mating portions 6〇5 and 611. Therefore, the pull tab 662 also has a double width and may include a pair of finger holes 663. Figures 16-18 illustrate another connector 800 of the present invention that utilizes a housing 801, an actuator 802, and a latch assembly 8〇3. In this embodiment, the actuator 802 has a pair of ribs 8 2a that are added for stability. It has a cam member 804 at its front end 805, and the connector housing 801 has a recess 807 for receiving the cam member 804. The cam member 804 is depicted in the form of a cylindrical roller pin 809. However, other shapes may be used. Actuator 802 and latch collar latch arm 810 are received in a channel formed in the top of actuator housing 801. 22 M406822 ^ 99201569 If t Revision date: 1 coffee · 01. The two housing halves 812a, 812b are joined together along a line, the line is aligned with the centerline of the housing, and it will be understood that the pair is connected The τ page portion and the bottom portion can be offset to provide another way of interworking. The housing 〇1 can be grooved at 8〇4 to accommodate a resilient or other type of spacer 815 for reducing enthalpy. The housing may include one or more blocks 816 for use as a stop for circuit card 607 or as a pre-molded support for free ends of wires (not shown) that exit cable 817. This embodiment also uses an insulator fastening bar having two opposite ends, each having a swage projection 833 disposed thereon. The rod 830 is inserted between the side walls of the abutment portions of the connector 8's such that their projections 833 extend through the corresponding apertures 5 on the side walls and the two projections are then swaged. Figures 19-26 illustrate another embodiment of a connector 85A having a fixed collar 85 having a longer width _ lock arm 852. The arm 852 has an enlarged range in which the width increases from a narrow width % of the top of the -_arm to a wider width % of its free end 853 as shown in Fig. 20. The narrow upper portion of the latching arm facilitates operation of the latching member and has the effect of reducing the required pulling force or thrust.
