Abstract
Implementations of a two-piece electrical connector are provided. In some implementations, the two-piece electrical connector may be used to conductively connect two electronic devices (e.g., audio equipment). In some implementations, the two-piece electrical connector may be configured to reduce signal degradation (e.g., skin effect, noise, distortion, etc.) during transmission between connected electronic devices. In some implementations, the two-piece electrical connector may comprise a plug and a jack configured to connect together and thereby complete an electrical circuit. In some implementations, the plug and jack may each include two contacts. In some implementations, each contact is a segment of a foil conductor that is a single unitary piece of material (i.e., there are no breaks or soldered joints). In this way, through the use of foil conductors having a unitary construction, signal degradation is reduced between electronic devices connected together by a two-piece electrical connector.
