To the extent appropriate, a claim of priority is made to each of the above disclosed applications.
The invention relates to a plug-in connector for telecommunications and data technology.
FIG. 5 is a schematic diagram of the alternative plug-in connector 1 shown in FIG. 3.
FIG. 3 shows an alternative plug-in connector 1 in the form of a plug, the plug-in connector housing having a two-part design and comprising an upper part 31 and a lower part 32, which can be latched to one another. For this purpose, the upper part 31 is formed with latching hooks 33, which engage in latching openings 34 in the lower part 32. A cable manager 35 is arranged in the lower part 32 and ensures defined guidance of the cores 28 of a data cable 50 to first contacts 29, which are coupled to the RF contacts 30 of the plug. Arranged behind the cable manager 35 is a ferrite sleeve holder 36, which is used for holding four ferrite sleeves 37. The cores 28 to be connected are in this case guided in pairs through the ferrite sleeve 37 and then in the cable manager 35. The ferrite sleeve holder 36 is in this case designed such that the four ferrite sleeves 37 do not come into contact with one another, with the result that feedback of magnetic currents is avoided. The ferrite sleeve holder 36 is in this case not fixed separately to the housing, but is held by the cores 28 or upper and lower parts 31, 32 pressing on one another. The ferrite sleeve holder 36 preferably consists of plastic.
As can be seen in FIG. 4, the ferrite sleeve holder 36 has a two-part design and comprises a front part 38 and a rear part 39. The front part 38 comprises a base body 40, which has bays 41, in each case offset through 90� with respect to one another. These bays 41 accommodate the ferrite sleeves 37. Furthermore, the base body 40 has cylindrical attachments 42 having clamping protrusions 43. As can be seen in FIG. 3, a ferrite sleeve 37 is fixedly clamped between four cylindrical attachments 42 with clamping protrusions 43. In this case, the front part 38 and the rear part 39 have a virtually identical design. In order to connect the front part 38 and the rear part 39 to one another, in each case two cylindrical attachments 42 have journals 44, which enter an opening 45 in the opposite cylindrical attachment 42. Furthermore, the base body 40 also has holding journals 46.
FIG. 5 shows a schematic illustration of the alternative plug-in connector 1 shown in FIG. 3. The plug-in connector 1 includes the upper housing part 31 and the lower housing part 32. The cable manager 35 is arranged in the lower part 32. Ferrite sleeves 37 are arranged behind the cable manager 35. The plug-in connector 1 also includes first contacts 29 and second, RF contacts 30. A second contact 30 corresponds to each first contact 29. The first contacts 29 are DC-connected to their corresponding second contacts 30. Contact is made with a plurality of core pairs 28 of a symmetrical data cable 50 by means of the first contacts 29. Two first contacts 29 are correspond to each core pair 28. An electrical contact is produced with contacts of a complementary plug-in connector by means of the second contacts 30. Cores 28 of the cable 50 are guided through the sleeve 37 to the manager 35 to the contacts.
