Abstract: Connector receptacles having protective doors. A protective door may block a card, module, or connector insert from being inserted at an oblique angle to protect contacts in a connector receptacle from damage due to an improper insertion. The protective door may normally be closed in the absence of a card inserted in the connector receptacle. The door may be a front of a cam. A spring or magnet may bias the door in the closed position when no card is inserted. The door may be arranged to stay closed when a card is inserted at an oblique angle. When the card is inserted properly, the cam may rotate about an axis and the door may open allowing the card to access to the contacts of the connector receptacle. A second door in front of the protective door may be included to provide enhanced functionality and to provide a more uniform appearance.

Abstract: Connector receptacles that may be modular, may be reliable and durable, and may provide a high signal quality. Examples may provide modular connector receptacles having a shielded housing around a tongue supporting a number of contacts. They may provide a high signal quality by using printed circuit boards as tongues and for routing signals, and they may be made durable by using through-hole contacting portions soldered to the printed circuit board and mechanically supported by a header.

Abstract: Combined connector receptacles, examples of which comprise tongues configured to be aligned to openings in a device enclosure; EMI shield contact rails, a central ground plane, a connector receptacle shield to provide isolation between the individual connector receptacles to reduce signal noise; and organizers and other structures arranged to reduce or eliminate damage to through-hole contact portions during their insertion into corresponding openings in a printed circuit board.
