Abstract: A connector assembly includes a housing having a body and a head extending outward from the body. The housing is coupled to an LED circuit board with the head mounted to a front side of the LED circuit board and with the body extending through an opening of the LED circuit board to a rear side of the LED circuit board. The housing has driver card slot in the body configured to receive a driver card from the rear side of the LED circuit board. The housing has a contact channel open to the driver card slot with a contact therein. The contact has a mating interface configured to engage and be electrically connected to the driver card. The contact has a mounting leg extending from the head that is configured to be mounted to the front side of the LED circuit board.

Abstract: A connector system includes a substrate having a front side and a rear side with an opening therethrough, and a connector assembly coupled to the substrate. The connector assembly includes a housing having a body at a bottom and a head at a top that extends along the front side with the body extending through the opening to the rear side. The housing has a contact channel extending therethrough. A poke-in contact is received in the contact channel through the top of the housing. The poke-in contact has a wire trap configured to receive a wire therein in a wire loading direction through the bottom of the housing. The poke-in contact has a mounting leg extending from the head and mounted to the front side of the substrate.

Abstract: An electrical connector including a connector housing having opposite mating and loading faces that are configured to engage board edges of first and second circuit boards, respectively. The connector housing includes a contact channel that extends through the connector housing between the mating and loading faces. The electrical connector also includes a signal contact that is stamped from sheet material along a stamped edge. The signal contact includes a contact body having opposite sheet surfaces. The stamped edge defines a shape of the contact body that includes first and second contact fingers. The signal contact is disposed within the contact channel so that the stamped edge along the first contact finger electrically engages the first circuit board and so that the stamped edge along the second contact finger electrically engages the second circuit board.
