Electrical connector for data and energy supply

摘要

An electrical connector (1) is disclosed. The electrical connector supplies power to data devices by means of data lines (7) which interconnect the data devices in a computer network. The devices have at least two device contacts (5) on the data device side and at least one mains contact (8) on the data line side. Connector (1) has a transformer integrated between the at least two device contacts (5) and the at least one mains contact (8), where the transformer combines an energy-data flow which is present at the at least one mains contact (8) with an energy flow at the one device contact and with at least one data flow at the other device contact.
