Abstract
The invention relates to an enclosure assembly for at least of a variety of in particular standardized connectors on a cable, such as RJ45, HDMI and others. The enclosure assembly has a connector volume located within an inner body of the enclosure assembly. The connector volume is adapted to moveably accommodate the connector. The inner body is open to an outer environment and a forward and a rearward end. The enclosure assembly further includes an outer body adapted to slide over the inner body in a forward direction. The outer body is provided with at least one locking element for securing the enclosure assembly to a mating enclosure. As a further improvement to the known connector assemblies, the connector volume is located within an electromagnetic shielding structure and the electromagnetic shielding structure is located within the inner body. According to a further embodiment, the electromagnetic shielding structure comprises a fixed shielding substructure and a moveable shielding substructure, which may be automatically connected to each other upon movement of the inner body in the forward direction.
