The receiver unit includes a receiver body, a housing containing this receiver body, a cord connected to the receiver body, and a cord protector for protecting the cord. The cord protector is a plate-like member having a substantially rectangular shape, and includes an engaging portion and a semicircular portion. The cord protector is formed of soft material such as urethane rubber having Shore hardness of about A90, and its wall thickness is set to be 0.3 to 0.6 mm (0.5 mm, for example).

A cable bypass assembly is disclosed for use in providing a high speed transmission line for connecting a board mounted connector of an electronic device to a chip on the device board. The bypass cable assembly has a structure that permits it, where it is terminated to the board mounted connector and the chip member, or closely proximate thereto to replicate closely the geometry of the cable. The connector terminals are arranged in alignment with the cable signal conductors and shield extensions are provided so that shielding can be provided up to and over the termination between the cable signal conductors and the board connector terminal tails. Likewise, a similar termination structure is provided at the opposite end of the cable where a pair of terminals are supported by a second connector body and enclosed in a shield collar. The shield collar has an extension that engages the second end of the cable.

A pivoting strain relief bar assembly that is comprised of a patch panel rotatably coupled to a strain relief bar, where the patch panel and strain relief bar are also coupled to a conventional rack capable of supporting telecommunications or other electronic equipment. Cables that are to be terminated to the patch panel are secured to and supported by the strain relief bar. The strain relief bar is capable of locking in a substantially horizontal position and thus remains fixed while supporting a large number of network cables. The strain relief bar can also be unlocked and rotated, allowing a technician to access the patch panel without having to unnecessarily disconnect cables.

A coaxial cable connector includes a connector body having a rearward cable receiving end, a locking sleeve movably coupled within the rearward cable receiving end of the connector body for locking the cable in the connector and a gripping ferrule disposed between the connector body and the locking sleeve. The gripping ferrule includes axially opposite gripping ends which move in a radially inward direction upon compression between the locking sleeve and the connector body to grip the outer surface of the cable.

A dual orientation connector having a connector tab with first and second major opposing sides and a plurality of electrical contacts carried by the connector tab. The plurality of contacts includes a first set of external contacts formed at the first major side and a second set of external contacts formed at the second major side. The first plurality of contacts are symmetrically spaced with the second plurality of contacts and the connector tab is shaped to have 180 degree symmetry so that it can be inserted and operatively coupled to a corresponding receptacle connector in either of two insertion orientations.

The present invention provides a connecting device which has a connecting portion capable of rotatably connecting two housing portions without protruding from the two housing portions and can stably keep the housing portions arranged so as to face each other.The connecting device includes; first and third connecting members 31 and 33 which have flexibility and foldably connects an upper housing portion 1 and a lower housing portion 2 with a predetermined gap interposed therebetween; and a second connecting member 32 which has enough restoring force and rigidity to restore a bent state to an unbent state and is curved in an arc shape in sectional view such that a concave portion of the arc is oriented in a direction where the upper and lower housing portions are folded.

A socket with integrated insulation displacement connection terminals is provided, which includes a base, a terminal pusher, a first pressing element, and a second pressing element. The base has two rows of insulation displacement connection terminals engaged in one side thereof. The terminal pusher has two rows of receiving holes corresponding to each of the IDC terminals, for a plurality of wires bridging across one of holes respectively. The first pressing element is pivoted to the base to be rotated to press the terminal pusher through first pressing portions, such that each IDC terminal is inserted into each receiving hole and each wire is introduced in a corresponding IDC terminal. The second pressing element is pivoted to the base to be rotated to press against the first pressing element through second pressing portions, so as to fix the terminal pusher to the base.

A male compression-type coaxial cable connector having a compression sleeve slidingly disposed within an axial conduit within a connector body. The prepared end of the coaxial cable is inserted through the compression sleeve and advanced into the connector body. Subsequent advancement of the compression sleeve within the axial conduit, with the assistance of a compression tool, forces the deformable leading end of the compression sleeve radially inward to compress the cable jacket and braid thereby providing secure attachment of the connector to the cable. In a first embodiment, the compression sleeve is removable and can be replaced with another compression sleeve having a different inner diameter to accommodate a variety of coaxial cables. In a second embodiment, the compression sleeve is permanently attached to the connector. Advancement of the compression sleeve forces a separate compression ring disposed within the conduit forwardly, the compression ring deforming inwardly during advancement to affix the cable to the connector. In a third embodiment, the barb, which is disposed on the trailing end of prior art shanks, is disposed forward of the trailing end of the shank.

By providing at least two integrated components, an outer housing and an inner sleeve member, with the inner sleeve member being securely mounted to the outer housing in a manner which prevents its separation from the housing, an efficient, easily manufactured and assembled cable connector is realized. In the preferred embodiment, the inner sleeve member is press fitted into the housing in order to provide the desired secure, integrated affixation of these components. Furthermore, the inner sleeve member is constructed in a generally hollow cylindrical shape with at least two arm members integrally formed therewith, each of which angularly slopes inwardly from the cylindrical wall of the sleeve member, and includes a distal end portion which is angularly disposed relative to the arm member in at least one direction and preferably in two directions.

A coaxial connector for attaching the end of a coaxial cable to an equipment port includes a tubular post, a coupler, a body member having a cylindrical sleeve, and one or more reservoirs containing a chemical component disposed between the post and the cylindrical sleeve. Insertion of the coaxial cable into the connector opens the reservoir, releases the chemical component, and secures the jacket of the cable within the cylindrical sleeve. The chemical component(s) can include an adhesive, a volume-expanding material, and / or an agent that swells the jacket of the cable. Two or more chemical components may be stored in two or more adjacent reservoirs.
