Abstract
A connector may include a first housing configured to detachably secure a first input cable of a first sensor configured to generate a first signal, and a second housing configured to detachably secure a second input cable of a second sensor configured to generate a second signal. The second housing may be configured to transmit the second signal from the second input cable to the first housing. The first housing may be configured to transmit at least one of the first signal and the second signal to an output cable. A coupling of the first housing may be configured to mate with a coupling of the second housing such that the first housing and the second housing are configured to be detachably secured to each other. The coupling may be mechanical, electro-mechanical, or magnetic. Either sensor may be an electrocardiogram sensor or a pulse oximetry sensor.
