[0039] The end cap 4 can be assembled and fixed with the port 31 of the first connector 2, and the ring member 61 of the adapter 6 is placed in the annular groove 32 between the two, so that the ring member 61 is penetrated by the end cap 4 and the port 31 on the first connector 2 to fix the three together. At this time, the adapter 6 can rotate 360° freely and slide short distances at various angles around the axis of the first connector 2 to achieve the adapter 6 being able to be plugged in and out without being separated from the data cable body and without interfering with the use of the first connector 5.
[0040] In some embodiments, the ring member 61 is oval; preferably, the ring member 61 is a standard runway-shaped oval, and the width of the ring member 61 is smaller than the diameter of the cover plate 41 so that the ring member 61 is fixed by the cover plate 41; the length of the ring member 61 is greater than the length of the first connector 5 protruding from the side of the first shell 3, so that the adapter 6 can slide short distances at various angles relative to the first connector 2 without affecting the structure of the first connector 5, and facilitate the plugging and unplugging of the second connector 8 and the first connector 5.

[0043] When the collar 61 rotates around the axis of the first connector 2, the adapter 6 is located on the side of the first housing 3 close to the first connector 5, that is, the position of the adapter 6 coincides with the position of the first connector 5. At this time, the adapter 6 and the first connector 2 are in the second state.
[0044] Based on the second state, the adapter 6 moves toward the first connector 5 until the second connector 8 is plugged into the first connector 5, thereby realizing the connection between the adapter 6 and the first connector 2. At this time, the adapter 6 and the first connector 2 are in the third state.
[0045] The adapter 6 is connected to the first connector 2 by passing through the first state and the second state in sequence until the third state; and the adapter 6 is separated from the first connector 2 by passing through the third state and the second state in sequence until the first state.
