Abstract

A data cable connector module with a fixation element for positioning and fixation of cable conductors of a multi core cable, with: conductor receiving units with conductor guide and connection openings for bent IDCs, IDC receiving units for fixation of connected IDCs with contact openings; a centric metallic shield star which shields each conductor pair and is electrically conductively connected with the housing of the fixation element; and a detachably connectable, changeable contact module with a metal housing, an isolation socket for receiving bent slide contacts with connector ends for connection to a circuit board which connects the slide contacts and the module plug-in contacts, a front connector face for external connectors; and a fixation element connector face with in at least one end isolator block guided module plug-in contacts. The fixation element and the contact module are electrically conductively connectable with the IDCs.

Claims (14)

1. A data cable connector module, comprising:

a fixation element 3 for positioning and fixing of cable conductors 1 of a multi-core cable, and which is connected to an end of the multi-core cable, with:

conductor receiving units 16 with a conductor guide 13 and connection openings for bent insulation-displacement connectors 14 ,

insulation-displacement connector receiving units 18 with contact openings for reception of connected insulation-displacement connectors 14 ;

a centric metallic shield star 5 , which shields each pair of the conductors of the multi-core cable relative to other pairs of the conductors of the multi-core cable and has an electrically conductive connection to a fixation element housing 4 ;

the fixation element housing 4 ; and

a detachable, connectable to the fixation element, changeable contact module 7 with

a contact module metal housing 8 ,

an isolation socket 32 arranged in the contact module metal housing 9 for reception of bent slide contacts 10 with contact ends 6 for connection with a circuit board 20 ;

the circuit board 20 being positioned between the slide contacts 10 and the module plug-in contacts 12 , and which connects the contact ends of the slide contacts 10 with the module plug-in contacts 12 ;

a front connector face for external connectors 9 ; and

an isolator block 31 receiving at least one end of plug-in contacts 12 at one face and being connectable to the fixation element 3 at an opposite face,

whereby the fixation element 3 and the contact module 7 are constructed in a form that can be brought into contact by establishing an electrically conductive connection of the module plug-in contacts 12 with the insulation-displacement connectors 14 , so that the cable conductors 1 connected to the fixation element 3 are in an electrically conductive connection with the slide contacts of the contact module 7 .

2. The data cable connector module according to claim 1 , wherein the fixation element is polygonal.
