An edge launch radio frequency (RF) signal connector includes ground contact tabs that have radially extending arms. The arms cover a gap between a substrate, such as a circuit board, and the connector to reduce the RF ground path between the RF reference ground and a signal pin supported by the connector. The arms extend radially inwardly from the protruding ground contact tabs toward a central support aperture that supports the signal pin. The arms and the ground contact tabs are formed integrally with the main connector body as one piece. The arms and the ground contact tabs may be planar in shape such that the arms and the ground contact tabs lie flush on the substrate when the connector is arranged over the edge of the substrate.

A locking cooler assembly includes a cooler that can store perishable items. The cooler is comprised of a thermally insulating material to retain the perishable items at a preferred temperature. A divider is hingedly coupled to the cooler and the divider opens and closes the cooler. A lid is hingedly coupled to the divider and the lid and the divider define a storage space when the lid is closed for storing non-perishable items. A locking unit is coupled to the divider and the locking unit engages the lid when the locking unit is engaged to secure the objects stored in the storage space defined by the divider and the lid. A remote control is in remote communication with the locking unit to facilitate the user to remotely disengage the locking unit.
