Abstract

An electrical connector assembly includes a carrier having an upper surface and a lower surface. The carrier includes a plurality of contact openings therethrough. The electrical connector assembly includes contacts coupled to the carrier and passing through the corresponding contact openings. Each contact has a conductive polymer column extending between an upper mating interface and a lower mating interface. The conductive polymer column includes an inner core manufactured from a first material and an outer shell manufactured from a second material. The second material has a higher electrical conductivity than the first material. The first material has a lower compression set than the second material.
