Abstract
A connector assembly includes a connector module having a connector body received in a passage through a substrate. The connector body includes a floating element that extends from the connector body. The connector body holds RF contacts and coaxial cables coupled to the RF contacts. The connector assembly includes a mounting frame coupled to the substrate having a locating element extending from the mounting frame. The locating element is spaced apart from the substrate to form a float pocket between the locating element and the substrate. The float pocket receives the floating element of the connector body and is oversized relative to the floating element to define a confined space to allow a limited amount of floating movement of the connector module relative to the substrate in a lateral direction that is perpendicular to the mating direction.
