Abstract

Die Erfindung betrifft eine Steckverbindung mit Abschirmung, vorzugsweise aus Messer- und Federleiste bestehend, mit mehreren Kontaktelementen (4; 41) die zumindest paarweise mit Abschirmungen in Form von Abschirmblechen (3; 31) versehen sind. Die Kontaktelemente (4; 41) sind in mehreren parallelen Reihen angeordnet. Die Abschirmbleche (3; 31) umgreifen zwei oder mehrere Kontaktelemente (4; 41) aus mindestens zwei Reihen (5a, 5b, 5c, 5d). Damit ist das miteinander Verbinden zweier Steckverbinder im 90° Winkel zueinander bzw. das Aufstecken von zwei Seiten her auf eine Leiterplatte (6) ermöglicht.

The invention relates to a plug connection with a shield, preferably consisting of a knife and female connector, with a plurality of contact elements (4; 41) which are at least in pairs provided with shields in the form of shielding plates (3; 31). The contact elements (4; 41) are arranged in several parallel rows. The shielding plates (3; 31) encompass two or more contact elements (4; 41) from at least two rows (5a, 5b, 5c, 5d). This enables the connection of two connectors at a 90 ° angle to each other or the plugging onto a circuit board (6) from two sides.
