A connector assembly is disclosed to include a shielding cage and a receptacle connector. The shielding cage forms at least one insertion space and a front end port communicatively coupled to the insertion space, the insertion space is defined by a top wall, a bottom wall and two side walls which cooperate with each other. The receptacle connector is provided to a rear segment of the shielding cage and includes a receptacle housing. The shielding cage further includes at least one stopping piece and at least one support stopping block which extend into the insertion space, the support stopping block is interposed between the stopping piece and the receptacle housing and supports the stopping piece. In another manner, the shielding cage may include a withdrawing stop portion and a rear stopping piece, the withdrawing stop portion is used to limit the receptacle housing to displace rearwardly, the rear stopping piece is used to stop the receptacle housing from behind the receptacle housing.

Shielding cage structure with respect to the receptacle connector within

A connector assembly including a shielding cage and a liquid cooling cabin. The shielding cage has an insertion space and a window in communication with the insertion space. The liquid cooling cabin is configured to allow a cooling liquid to circulate and flow inside, the liquid cooling cabin comprises a shell having an opening, a thermal coupling cover provided at the opening of the shell, and an elastic sealing unit sealing a gap between the thermal coupling cover and the shell, the thermal coupling cover having a thermal coupling plate entering into the insertion space via the window of the shielding cage, the thermal coupling plate being capable of elastically moving in a direction close to the shell and elastically restoring in a direction away from the shell by a function of the elastic sealing unit.

Connector assembly

A shield cage assembly of the present disclosure comprises a metal shield shell and a heat dissipating module. The metal shield shell comprises a plurality of walls and an accommodating space defined by the plurality of walls, and the accommodating space has a front end port. The heat dissipating module is assembled to one of the walls of the metal shield shell, and the metal shield shell further includes side walls respectively positioned at two sides of the wall to which the heat dissipating module is assembled. The heat dissipating module further includes a frame and a first heat dissipating member, the frame having a frame body formed at a central portion of the frame to receive the first heat dissipating member and two side plates which extend from two side edges of the frame and which are parallel to the side walls.

Shield cage assembly

A connector assembly includes a receptacle connector, a shielding cage, a heat sink and a clip. The shielding cage covers the receptacle connector. The clip assembles the heat sink to the shielding cage, is integrally formed by a metal sheet and includes a fixed plate, a movable plate and a plate spring. The fixed plate is provided to the shielding cage, and the movable plate is provided to a side surface of the heat sink. Two ends of the plate spring are respectively connected to the fixed plate and the movable plate, and the movable plate is capable of moving relative to the fixed plate by means of the plate spring.
