Patent attributes
A cabled receptacle connector includes a receptacle housing and a cable assembly received in the receptacle housing. The cable assembly includes a support frame supporting first and second mating contacts have mating ends for electrical connection with a pluggable module. The cable assembly includes cables with conductors electrically connected to the first mating contacts. The cable assembly includes jumper contacts coupled to the support frame electrically connected to the second mating contacts. The jumper contacts include mounting ends mounted to a host circuit board. First electrical paths are defined between the pluggable module and a remote electrical component by the first mating contacts and the cable conductors. Second electrical paths are defined between the pluggable module and the host circuit board by the second mating contacts and the jumper contacts.
