High speed interface converter module

摘要

An interface converter module is provided for converting data signals from a first transmission medium to a second transmission medium. The module is housed within a metallized housing having a first end and a second end. A shielded electrical connector is mounted at the first end of the housing and configured to mate to a corresponding connector associated with a first transmission medium. The housing includes a flexible metallic shielded cable having extending from the second end. The remote end of the shielded cable comprises the media interface which includes and interface connector configured to the connect the flexible shielded cable to the serial transmission medium. A printed circuit board is mounted within the housing and has mounted thereon electronic circuitry configured to convert data signals from a host device transmission medium to the second transmission medium.
