  • Publication number: 20120289094
    Abstract: A connector assembly connecting two electronic components includes a connector and a connection member. The connector is detachably and electrically connected to one electronic component. When the connector is electrically connected to the electronic component, the connection member is detachably and electrically connected between the connector and another electronic component. Thus, the connection between the connector and the connection member is detachable and flexible, and the connector does not need to be disassembled from an electronic device to replace a different lengthed connection members. Thus, the connector can correspondingly match different lengths of connection members, which can improve the versatility of the connector.
