Abstract:
A connector, comprising:a plastic body having a plurality of upper and lower terminal slots arranged in a predetermined manner, each of said terminal slots receiving a terminal therein, said plastic body also having a plurality of horizontal and vertical first isolation slots, each of said horizontal first isolation slots being provided between one of said upper terminal slots and a corresponding one of said lower terminal slots, and each of said vertical isolation slots being provided between any two adjacent pairs of said upper and said lower terminal slots; a first isolation plate having a front part received within said horizontal and vertical first isolation slots wherein said first isolation plate is configured to appear as a series of H-shaped plates; a metal case positioned over an outer portion of a front side of said plastic body; an insertion plate connected to a rear side of said plastic body, said insertion plate having an upper and a lower surface, each of said upper and said lower surfaces of said insertion plate being provided with a plurality of spacing ribs, and a plurality of recesses, with each recess being defined between two adjacent ones of said spacing ribs, each said recess of said insertion plate separately receiving a rear end of a respective terminal therein, said insertion plate being provided at a front side facing toward said rear side of said plastic body with a plurality of horizontal and vertical second isolation slots disposed in alignment with said horizontal and vertical first isolation slots, and receiving a rear part of said first isolation plate therein; an interconnecting cable including two rows of conducting wires, each wire being separately positioned in a rear of each respective recess of said insertion plate for electrical coupling with a respective terminal; two covering plates separately covering said upper and lower surfaces of said insertion plate to hold said conducting wires of said interconnecting cable in place, each of said covering plates being provided with a plurality of third isolation slots, and each having at a side facing toward said insertion plate a plurality of pressed ribs corresponding to and adapted to be integrally connected to tops of said spacing ribs on said insertion plate, each said third isolation slot being disposed between two adjacent pressed ribs; and a second isolation plate received within said third isolation slots, such that said second isolation plate and said first isolation plate together provide an isolation layer that surrounds four sides of each said terminal located in each said recess of said insertion plate; whereby said terminals are individually isolated from each other without mutually interfering with one another during high speed transmission of signals, enabling signals to be transmitted faster and more stably.
