  • Publication number: 20070207649
    Abstract: A preferred embodiment of a connector system includes a first electrical connector for mounting on a first substrate. The first electrical connector has a housing, and a contact mounted on the housing. The connector system also includes a second electrical connector for mounting on a second substrate. The second electrical connector includes a housing having a projection formed thereon, and a contact mounted on the housing. The second electrical connector is capable of mating with the first electrical connector so that the contact of the first electrical connector electrically contacts the contact of the second electrical connector and the projection contacts the first substrate so that at least a portion of the weight of the second electrical connector and the second substrate is transmitted to the first substrate by way of the projection.

  • Publication number: 20060014431
    Abstract: An electrical connector including a housing; electrical contacts connected to the housing; an outer shield connected to the housing; and at least one inner shield mounted along a portion of a front side of the housing. The inner shield includes a general C shaped substantially unvarying and uniform front end, and two legs extending reward from the front end. Each leg comprises a rear end with a portion which extends into the housing to attach the rear end to the housing. The front end of the inner shield is not directly mechanically attached to a front of the outer shield.
