Abstract
A multi-joint junction having a plurality of selectively adaptable female well interfaces. Each of the well interfaces can have a generally uniform shape, size, and/or configuration such that each well interface is configured to generally interchangeably receive the same sized and/or shaped mating male connector or contact interface. The interfaces of the multi-joint junction can also be limited to female contact interfaces, and not include any male connectors or contact interfaces. Such a configuration can provide a degree of modularity that can improve the ease with which the multi-point junction can be adapted to conform to different demands, applications and/or system configurations.
