Micro coaxial cable end connector assembly
First Claim
1. An cable connector assembly, comprising:
- an elongate insulative housing having a base portion, a tongue portion extending from the base portion, and a plurality of passageways defined through the base portion and the tongue portion;
a contact set assembled to a rear end of the housing and comprising an insulative insert, the insulative insert including a plurality of channels, a plurality of contacts received in the channels, the contacts extending into the passageways of the housing;
a plurality of wires connected to the contacts and received in the channels of the insulative insert;
wherein each of the channels of insulative insert comprises a soldering portion, an obstructing portion m rear of the soldering portion, and a retention portion in rear of the obstructing portion, the obstructing portion being narrower than the soldering portion and the retention portion, and wherein each of the wires has a conductor and an insulation sheathing the conductor, a front exposed end of the conductor being received in corresponding obstructing and soldering portions and soldered to a portion of a corresponding contact in the corresponding soldering portion, and the insulation being received in a corresponding retention portion;
wherein the insulative insert forms integrally a plurality of partitions, the channels each being defined between two neighboring partitions, each partition being formed with two oppositely laterally extending protrusions, and wherein each of the obstructing portions is defined between two neighboring protrusions;
wherein the base portion further includes a plurality of blocks thereon, further comprising a shield enclosing the housing and wherein the shield has a plurality of apertures engaging with the blocks of the base portion;
wherein the insulative insert further forms a pair of projections on lateral ends thereof, a pair of receiving sections is formed on lateral ends of a rear portion of the insulative housing, and each of the receiving sections defines a receiving hole receiving a corresponding projection of the insulative insert.

Abstract
A micro coaxial connector assembly (100) comprises an insulative housing (1), a contact set (2) assembled to a rear end of the housing and comprising an insulative insert (21), and a plurality of contacts (22), and a plurality of wires (3). The insulative insert defines a plurality of channels (211) and a plurality of passageways (210) respectively communicating with the channels. Each of the contacts comprises an engaging portion (221) extending through a corresponding passageway, and a connecting portion (222) received in a channel for soldering to an exposed end of a conductor (31) of a wire. Each channel has a soldering portion (2111), an obstructing portion (2112), and a retention portion (2113). The exposed end of the conductor is received in the soldering and obstructing portion. An insulation of the wire sheathing the conductor is received in the retention portion, whereby hot air applied to the soldering portion in order to solder the exposed end of the conductor and the connecting portion of the contact together is prevented from flowing into the retention portion to melt the insulation.
