Differential Signal Cable Evaluation Mechanism Without Solder

The patent removes the solder connection process entirely from the evaluation mechanism. Instead of using solder to connect the cable terminal to the connector, the invention uses a specialized evaluation mechanism that directly receives the cable terminal without soldering, thereby eliminating the source of impedance mismatch and measurement distortion while maintaining reliable electrical connection for accurate cable property evaluation

The patent introduces an intermediary evaluation mechanism structure that mediates between the cable terminal and the measurement instrument. This intermediary mechanism includes a receptacle with positioning structures and contact elements that provide a controlled impedance environment, acting as a buffer that prevents the cable's natural properties from being distorted by direct solder connection to standard connectors

The patent performs preliminary action by designing the evaluation mechanism to accommodate the cable terminal in its natural state before any soldering or connector attachment occurs. The mechanism includes pre-configured positioning structures and contact elements that establish reliable electrical connection without requiring solder connection, thereby preserving the cable's pure properties for accurate evaluation

The patent extracts the solder connection step from the cable assembly process in the context of property evaluation. By separating the evaluation function from the permanent assembly function, the invention allows cable properties to be measured in their pure state without the distorting effects of solder-induced impedance mismatch, while still enabling easy connection and disconnection for manufacturing efficiency
