Optical connector

摘要

The present invention relates to optical connectors for use in circuit modules in which the reduction of electromagnetic interference is an objective. In particular, the cable connector of the present invention provides an EMI shielded connector housing for mounting and sealing to a module faceplate and a cover plate that seals the remaining open portions of the housing and provides for access to the inside of the assembled connector. At least one cable terminal is included within the connector and provides for an external cable connection axis between approximately 15° and 75° from a normal of said module faceplate.
