Patent attributes
The present application relates to the field of interface technology, particularly to a unitary interface used for PCI-E SAS. The unitary interface comprises a connecting assembly, a terminal assembly and a fastening assembly, the connecting assembly includes a male sub-assembly, a female sub-assembly and a PCB sub-assembly. The fastening assembly includes two ferrule-arm-hook components. Each of the two ferrule-arm-hook components includes a ferrule, an arm and a hook, with the ferrule and the hook being respectively located at one of the two ends of the arm. The male protrusion and the female protrusion at the same side, which are brought closely to each other, can be encircled tightly by one of the two ferrules, while each of the arms provides elastic force to make each of the two hooks respectively snap to one of the two sides of the female sub-assembly.
