A cable bypass assembly is disclosed for use in providing a high speed transmission line for connecting aboard mountedconnector of an electronic device to a chip on the device board. The bypass cable assembly has a structure that permits it, where it is terminated to theboard mountedconnector and the chip member, or closely proximate thereto. to replicate closely the geometry of the cable. The connector terminals are arranged in alignment with the cable signal conductors and shield extensions are provided so that shielding can be provided up to and over the termination between the cable signal conductors and the board connector terminal tails. Likewise, a similar termination structure is provided at the opposite end of the cable where a pair of terminals are supported by a second connector body and enclosed in a shield collar. The shield collar has an extension that engages the second end of the cable, to allow signals to be transmitted at greater than 10 GHz with substantially lower loss than a traditional FR4 circuit board.

A receptacle assembly with improved EMI leakage reduction and construction is described. The assembly includes a housing in the form of a guide frame that has a hollow interior which accommodates the insertion of an electronic module therein. A heat sink is provided to dissipate heat generated during operation of a module and the heat sink has a base portion that defines a ceiling of the hollow interior. An opening in the top of the guide frame provides an attachment location for the heat sink. A separately formed base plate is inserted into the housing and it defines a bottom of the interior of the housing.

Adapter frame with integrated EMI and engagement aspects

A compliant pin for use with a shielding cage or electrical connector is disclosed that has improved insertion capabilities that increase the resistance of the compliant pin to buckling during mounting of the cage or connector to a circuit board. The pin has a base and tip portion that are interconnected together by a body portion. An opening is disposed in the pin body portion and the top edge of the opening is positioned at a level therein that is spaced apart from and beneath the top surface of the circuit board. In another embodiment, the pin opening is generally non-symmetrical with a configuration that approximates a triangle, i.e., the wider base portion of the pin opening is closer to the pin tip portion than the narrower, apex portion of the pin opening.
