A contact module, a female connector and a male connector, wherein the female contact unit of the female connector includes signal contacts arranged in pairs and ground contacts corresponding to the signal contacts, a side surface of each signal contact facing the corresponding ground contact includes a signal contact portion in conductive contact with the signal contact portion of an adapter connector, a side surface of each ground contact facing the corresponding signal contact includes a shielding contact portion in electrical contact with the ground contact of the adapter connector, and a plugging space for plugging the contact module of the adapter connector is between the signal contacts and the ground contacts. The female connector enables the adapted contact unit to be clamped between the corresponding signal contact and the corresponding ground contact to realize corresponding conduction.

Contact module, and female connector and male connector

A connector assembly includes an adapter connector and two end-connectors. Each connector includes a high-speed differential area and a low-speed area. The high-speed differential area of each end-connector includes an end differential unit. The high-speed differential area of the adapter connector includes an adapter differential module. Each end differential unit and a corresponding adapter differential unit include a signal contact and a ground shielding member. The plug-in parts of the two end-connectors, which are adapted with the adapter connector, are the same in structure, and of the end differential unit and the adapter differential unit, one is a male unit and the other is a female unit in corresponding plug-in fit. Due to the fact that the plug-in parts of the two end-connectors are the same in structure, when the end-connectors are plugged into the adapter connector, identification can be saved, and blind plugging operation can be directly performed.
