Abstract
A shielded transfer system is disposed on a back panel printed wiring board and has a strip body with partitions subdividing the strip body into individual rectangular chambers of equal size for receiving cable plugs having a shielding housing with a rectangular cross section. A shielding device for the cable plugs includes additional function elements disposed in the strip body for performing assigned functions, in particular for guiding, contacting, encoding and locking the cable plugs. The additional function elements are constructed and disposed for permitting the rectangular cable plugs with a plug cross section of a certain unit size and smaller rectangular cable plugs with a plug cross section being one-half and one-fourth of the plug cross section of the unit size, to be selectively inserted into the chambers of the strip body, while preserving and utilizing all of the functions of the additional function elements.
