A method, system, and connector interface for transferring status information between a media player and an accessory. The method includes determining, by the accessory, when a button event occurs; and transmitting, by the accessory, at least one button status command to the media player, where the one or more button status commands comprise a context-specific button status command and at least one command associated with a particular media type. According to the method and system disclosed herein, the media player and accessory may utilize a plurality of commands in a variety of environment such as within a connector interface system environment to facilitate the transfer of status information.

The embodiment of the invention provides wired earphone compatible method and device, wherein the method comprises the following steps of: judging the type of an earphone plug; and controlling a path switch to communicate a path that corresponds to the type of the earphone plug according to the type of the earphone plug. By adopting the method and the device provided by the embodiment, a terminal device can be compatible with two kinds of earphones with different standards.

The differential pair system includes a push-on high frequency differential connector sleeve and push-on high frequency differential connector. The system allows for blind mating of the two components, using a keying system for the two electrical conductors to be axially and radially aligned.

A method, system and connector interface for transferring stored data between a media player and an accessory is disclosed. The method and system comprises obtaining by one of the media player and the accessory a unique identifier for a particular file stored in the other of the media player and the accessory; and returning the unique identifier with the stored file data to the one of the media player and the accessory. The system and method includes utilizing the stored file by the one of the media player or the accessory. In the method, system and connector interface in accordance with the present invention, accessories and media players are able to retrieve and store data utilizing an arbitrary format. This data is opaque to any protocol used by the media player and requires no parsing or interpretation. To provide this facility, a plurality of commands allows both media players and accessories to present a simple file system. The plurality of commands could be utilized in a variety of environments.

A switch-equipped input-output plug available for a voice input-output connector (jack) different from one type of portable phone or the like from another is provided. A connecting portion of a 4-electrode plug, for connecting a manipulate-signal electrode has a screwing portion formed therearound. is used for two types of portable phones respectively equipped with 4-electrode and 3 electrode jacks. Thus, a single type of plug is commonly available for two types of portable phones respectively equipped with 4-electrode and 3 electrode jacks by using an adaptor designed to serve as the manipulate-signal electrode such that the adaptor is screwed with the connecting portion and is detached from the connecting portion, respectively.

A high power receptacle connector has a first insulating housing, a second insulating housing, a first terminal, a second terminal, a third terminal and a shell. The second insulating housing is mounted on the first insulating housing and has a cylinder. The first terminal is cylindrical, surrounds the cylinder and has multiple first resilient contacting tabs and a reinforcing ring formed on front ends of the first resilient contacting tabs. The second terminal is cylindrical and mounted around the cylinder and has multiple radially protruding second resilient contacting tabs. The second resilient contacting tabs increase the contacting areas, reduce the resistance of the terminals and further improve the power of the high power receptacle connector and stably hold an external plug connector.

Disclosed is an earphone jack including a housing, a circuit connector mounted in the housing, and a plurality of first connecting terminals each including a first connecting section outwardly protruded from the housing, to be connected to a circuit of an audio appliance, and a second connecting section extending from the first connecting section while being bent to have a C shape such that the second connecting section elastically fits around an associated one of the connecting terminals of the earphone plug. It is possible to elastically support the earphone plug even after the earphone plug is repeatedly inserted into and separated from the housing, because the first connecting terminals have a structure bent to have a circular shape.
