[0024] See also Figure 1 and Figure 3The wire management element 10 provided in the present application includes a wire outlet portion 100, a wire management plate 200 and a wire management frame 300. The wire outlet portion 100 is formed with a wire passage 110 for the cable 400 to pass through, so that the wire outlet portion 100 limits the cable 400. The wire management plate 200 is connected to a side of the wire outlet portion 100 close to the outlet of the wire passage 110. The wire management frame 300 is connected to the wire management plate 200, and a plurality of wire passing holes 310 are formed between the wire management frame 300 and the wire management plate 200. Each wire passing hole 310 can be used for a sub-wire 410 in the cable 400 to pass through, so that the wire management frame 300 and the wire management plate 200 can jointly limit the sub-wires. Compared with the prior art, the cable management element 10 provided in the present application fixes the cable through the cable outlet portion 100, and each sub-wire 410 in the cable 400 is passed through the corresponding cable hole 310 to complete the cable management process.

It should be noted that in other embodiments, the main body 210 is also provided with a positioning hole or a positioning column, which is offset from the cable management frame 300 to achieve the above-mentioned positioning function.

[0029] Optional, such as Figure 1 As shown, there are multiple cable management racks 300 , which are disposed on the main body 210 at intervals, and a cable through hole 310 is formed between each cable management rack 300 and the main body 210 .

[0030] It should be noted that, in other embodiments, Figure 2 As shown, the number of the cable management rack 300 may also be one.

[0031] Optional, such as Figure 1 As shown, a plurality of cable management racks 300 are arranged in rows, and the cable management racks 300 in adjacent rows are staggered.

[0032] Optionally, the body 210 is further formed with a punching hole 212, which is arranged opposite to the cable management frame 300, that is, the body 210 is punched by a punching machine to form the cable management frame 300. It should be noted that in other embodiments, the body 210 and the cable management frame 300 can also be integrally formed by a mold.

[0033] Optionally, the main body 210 divides the outlet of the wire passage 110 into a first sub-outlet 111 and a second sub-outlet 112, and a wire management rack 300 is provided on one side of the main body 210 close to the first sub-outlet 111 and on one side of the main body 210 close to the second sub-outlet 112, that is, the wire management rack 300 is provided on both the upper and lower surfaces of the main body 210, so that the sub-wires of the cable can be arranged on the upper and lower surfaces of the main body 210, and the existence of the main body 210 can reduce the mutual interference between the sub-wires on the upper and lower surfaces, increase the anti-interference ability inside the cable, and improve the crosstalk performance to a certain extent.

[0034] The present application also provides a connector 20, such as Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, the connector 20 includes a shell 500, a cable 400, a circuit board 600 and the wire management element 10 mentioned above. The shell 500 forms an installation space 510. The cable 400 is installed on the wire management element 10 and is electrically connected to the circuit board 600. The wire management element 10 and the circuit board 600 are respectively arranged in the installation space 510.

It should be noted that, in other embodiments, the drawstring 700 can also be movably mounted only on the side walls of the upper cover 530. When the connector 20 is engaged with the board-end connector, the drawstring 700 can be pulled to separate the connector 20 from the board-end connector.

[0039] Optionally, the connector 20 further includes a wire guard 900 , which is sleeved on the cable 400 and prevents the base 520 and the upper cover 530 from crushing the cable 400 .
