Abstract (en)

[origin: EP0545502A1] A connector assembly for connecting a shielded cable (1) to a printed circuit board (2) comprises a first connector element (3) with a first housing (4) of insulating material, a plurality of rows of male signal contacts (6) and at least one row of male ground contacts (8). A second connector element (9) has a housing (10) formed of metal to be connected with the cable shielding and having an insertion side, an insert (12) of insulation mounted in the housing, rows of female signal contacts (16) received in the insert and corresponding with the rows of male signal contacts (6) and at least one row of female ground contacts (20). The first housing (4) is provided along at least one longitudinal wall (5) with outwardly open slots (7) in which said male ground contacts are received. The metal housing (10) has a receiving space in which the first housing (4) can be fully received in such a manner that the walls of the metal housing (10) are adjoining the printed circuit board (2) in the assembled position. Along at least one longitudinal side of the receiving space (17) the female ground contacts are provided as contact springs for contacting the male ground contacts (8) in the assembled position. <IMAGE>
