An active plug connector () adapted to plug into a receptacle includes a shell () defining a receiving room (), a pair of printed circuit boards () received in the receiving room and disposed horizontally and spaced apart from each other along a vertical direction, an active element mounted on one of the two printed circuit boards, and a connecting member () electrically connected with the two printed circuit boards to share the active element. A method for assembling the active plug connector comprises inserting the connecting member into the receiving room to electrically connect with the conductive pads of the printed circuit boards to share the active element.

A cable assembly () includes a cover () defining an outer cavity (), a shielding cage () defining an inner cavity () and being mounted into the outer cavity, an inner board () assembled in said inner cavity, and a cable () assembled onto the inner board. The inner board includes a top surface (), a bottom surface () and two side surfaces (). The side surface has a first ground pad () adapted to connect with the shielding cage, the bottom surface has a second ground pad () adapted to connect with the cable, and the top surface has a third ground pad () adapted to connect with the cable.

A cable connector assembly includes a connector and a cable electrically connected with the connector. The connector includes a shell, a first and a second printed circuit boards received in the shell, and an opto-electronic conversion module, the second printed circuit board including a first end electrically connected with the first printed circuit board and a second end opposite to the first end, the second end comprising a first connecting portion electrically connected with the opto-electronic conversion module and a second connecting portion. The cable includes a number of electrical wires electrically connected with the second connecting portion for transmitting electrical signal and a number of optical fibers or wires coupling with the opto-electronic conversion module for transmitting optical signal.

A delatch mechanism for a plug connector () plugged in a cage (). The delatch mechanism includes a latch block () positioned at an exterior surface of the cage, a latch tap () positioned at an exterior portion of the plug connector (), and an actuator member () positioned at the exterior portion of the plug connector. The latch tap has a latch hole () for matching with the latch block to lock the plug connector with the cage. Drive the actuator member so that the latch block away from the latch hole to unlock the plug connector from the cage. Through setting the latch block on the cage and the latch hole on the plug connector, the delatch mechanism runs easily for unlatch process.

A low profile connector having a first mating slot and a second mating slot vertically stacked above and backwardly offseted from the first mating slot, and a complementary electrical plug. The electrical plug has a first mating card and a second mating card horizontally stacked above the first mating card forwardly offseted from the first mating card. The electrical connector is matable with an existing SFP or QSFP plug, and the first mating slot are used to receive a front card edge of the existing SFP or QSFP plug.
