A connector shielding for a connector includes a plurality of shielding walls forming a receptacle receiving a mating connector and a guiding protrusion disposed on at least one of the shielding walls and protruding from the at least one of the shielding walls toward the receptacle. The receptacle is open in an insertion direction at a forward end for insertion of the mating connector. The shielding walls are parallel with each other at least in sections in a cross-section perpendicular to the insertion direction.

A cover assembly includes a protective cover having an impedance control structure and a plurality of electrical conductors conducting electrical signals of a high-frequency data transmission. The electrical conductors extend through the protective cover in a transmission direction and are overlappingly bonded to each other at a bond location located within the protective cover. The impedance control structure adjusts an impedance of the bond location to a predefined value.

Cover assembly with at least one impedance control structure

A shielding for a signal connector includes a plurality of shielding walls arranged to electromagnetically shield a signal contact of the signal connector, a forward end open for receiving a mating connector along an insertion direction, and a longitudinal circumferential retention element extending along a circumferential direction of the shielding. At least two of the shielding walls are parallel with each other at least in sections in a cross-section perpendicular to the insertion direction.

A contact terminal includes a terminal shield, a contact carrier, and a contact element for conducting electrical signals of a high-frequency data transmission. The contact carrier retains the contact element in a fixed position within the terminal shield. The terminal shield has a discontinuity that affects an impedance of the contact element. At least one of the contact carrier and the contact element has an impedance control feature configured to adjust the impedance of the contact element to a predefined desired value according to a frequency of the data transmission.
