Abstract
An electronic connector assembly includes a first PCB including a first electrical circuit, and a connector member disposed on a first side of the first PCB and electrically connected to the first electrical circuit. The connector member has a connector body sized to fit within an opening defined by walls of an EMI shield frame. The electronic connector assembly further includes a permanent magnet disposed on a second side of the first PCB. The permanent magnet has a magnet body sized to cover the opening in the EMI shield frame of a receptacle assembly and to provide a magnetic attraction force between the permanent magnet and the EMI shield frame to press the first PCB against an opposing portion of the walls of the EMI shield frame and cause a grounded portion of the first side of the first PCB to make an electrical connection with the EMI shield frame.
