The present invention is a cable, which carries signal, having an integrated coiling and reinforcing wrapper. The cable has a segment near an end that is stiffer than the cable generally. This segment can be bent by hand, and once bent, will retain its bent shape. If the flexible part of the cable is wrapped into a coil, or otherwise gathered together, then the stiffer portion can be bent around the gathered portion to secure it in its gathered form.

Cable with an integrated coiling and reinforcing wrapper

An integrated design for an active HDMI connector is presented. The active HDMI connector comprises an active module circuit board, a connector pin assembly, connector pins, an insulation housing, and a metal connector shell. The connector shell partially encloses and partially exposes the active module. The connector pins each have a bent segment embedded in a molding assembly to fixate the pins within the molding assembly. The molding assembly defines a recessed slot for the active module. The active module has a cutout on a side of the module that is aligned with a tab on the connector shell. The tab is bent toward the inside of the connector shell to secure the active module inside the shell. The insulation housing includes pin separators that do not fully surround the connector pins.
