Patent ID: 7204716

Claim:
A shielded electrical connector comprising: an insulator body having an inner housing and an outer housing, an inner longitudinal terminal passage that extends through the inner housing and that has a terminal inlet and a terminal outlet, an outer longitudinal shield passage disposed between the inner housing and the outer housing, the outer longitudinal shield passage being in communication with the terminal inlet of the inner longitudinal terminal passage, a shielded electric cable that has a conductive core, an inner insulation jacket, a conductive shield outward of the inner insulation jacket, and an outer insulation jacket outward of the conductive shield, a terminal that is attached to an end portion of the electric cable and that is in electrical contact with the conductive core, the end portion of the electric cable and the terminal being disposed in a terminal receiving portion of the inner longitudinal terminal passage of the inner housing with the electric cable extending out of the terminal inlet of the terminal passage, and an inner annular elastomeric cable seal that engages the inner insulation jacket of the electric cable and the terminal passage to seal the inlet of the terminal passage around the inner insulation jacket of the electric cable and isolate at least the terminal receiving portion of the inner longitudinal terminal passage electrically from the outer longitudinal shield passage.
