ELECTRICAL CABLE CONNECTOR AND ASSEMBLY

摘要

An electrical cable connector assembly includes a shielded connector housing and first and second connector wafer assemblies having a mating portion. The shielded connector housing includes an insulative connector body and a shield member. Each connector wafer assembly includes a planar insulative connector wafer body including a plurality of channels, a set of electrical contacts disposed in the channels, and an electrical cable terminated to the electrical contacts. The first and second connector wafer assemblies are inserted in the shielded connector housing such that a bottom surface of the connector wafer body of the first connector wafer assembly abuts a bottom surface of the connector wafer body of the second connector wafer assembly, and the mating portion of the first and second connector wafer assemblies extends through an opening in a front wall of the connector body into a mating cavity of the shield member.
