A connector system having a first connector and a second connector. The first connector is mounted to a substrate and includes a housing and a first shell. The first shell has solder hold down posts which extend from a circuit board mounting surface of the first connector. Securing openings are provided in side walls of the first shell. The second connector includes a daughterboard and a second shell. The second shell has side plates, resilient latching projections are formed from mating connector alignment portions positioned on the side plates proximate a connector receiving surface of the second connector. The resilient latching projections of the second connector cooperate with the securing openings of the first connector to secure the second connector to the first connector. The first connector is secured to the substrate by soldering the solder hold down posts to the substrate.

High density orthogonal card edge connector

A contact includes a base portion, a cold-weld portion extending upward from the base portion and having a cold-weld slot into which an electric wire is configured to be cold-welded, a trailing portion extending downward by being folded back downward from an upper end of the cold-weld portion, and a contact portion extending from a lower end of the trailing portion. The trailing portion has a press-fitted portion below the cold-weld slot that is press-fitted into the housing. The contact portion makes contact with a mating contact by receiving the mating contact in a space between the contact portion and the base portion.
