Abstract:
A connector comprising a plastic body, a front part of which being covered with a steel case and a rear part of which having an insertion plate connected thereto, said plastic body having two rearward extended side walls that are provided at an inner surface with a guide groove each, so that said insertion plate is connected to said plastic body by engaging two lateral sides into said two guide grooves, said insertion plate being provided at a front side with an upper and a lower row of multiple terminal slots in each of which a rear end of a connection terminal provided on the rear part of the plastic body is seated, said insertion plate being provided at a rear side with an upper and a lower receiving recess transversely extending across said insertion plate, and said upper and said lower receiving recesses being electrically connected with rear ends of some of said terminal slots at the front side of said insertion plate; said connector being characterized in that:a common ground connection means is associated with said upper and said lower receiving recesses provided at the rear side of said insertion plate, said common ground connection means being provided at a front side with staggered upper and lower common ground terminals, said common ground terminals being separately located in some of said terminal slots of said insertion plate to electrically contact with rear ends of said connection terminals correspondingly seated in said some terminal slots; and thata plurality of multiple-core cables are separately connected to said insertion plate in such a manner that a ground wire in each of said multiple-core cables is connected to said some terminal slots that each has one said common ground terminal and one said connection terminal seated therein and other information wires in each of said multiple-core cables are connected to said terminal slots that each has only one said connection terminal seated therein;whereby all said ground wires are electrically connected to said common ground connection means to form a common ground that effectively reduces noises and prevents noise interference with said connector.
