Title: Innovations by Shadi A Abughazaleh
Introduction
Shadi A Abughazaleh is an accomplished inventor based in Oakdale, CT (US). He holds a total of 11 patents, showcasing his expertise in the field of electrical connectors and telecommunications.
Latest Patents
One of his latest patents is a method of making a communications jack. This invention features an electrical connector designed to receive a mating plug, utilizing low-profile jack terminal contacts that can flex in their PCB-anchored base portions, which are substantially parallel to the PCB. The design minimizes stress concentrations by ensuring that any bend in the distal connecting portion or in the intermediate transition portion of each terminal contact is gradual and forms an obtuse angle. The contacts are arranged in two oppositely facing and interdigitating rows of four contacts each. In one embodiment, the terminal contacts are anchored to the PCB by a contact cradle that constrains the base portion of each terminal contact at two spaced anchoring locations, allowing the base portion to flex therebetween. In another embodiment, the base portions of the terminal contacts are embedded in at least one elastomeric member, which is fitted to the PCB. Another significant patent is for a telecommunications connector panel with interport crosstalk isolation. This multi-port telecommunications connector panel features an electrically conductive housing that defines a plurality of ports, each with a plug receiving cavity aligned with a respective set of jack contacts. The housing surrounds the sets of jack contacts individually and collectively to separate and isolate adjacent ports, utilizing electrically conductive isolation barriers.
