Abstract

A combined electrical connector and connector nesting assembly has a frame with a first section adapted to receive an edge of a printed circuit board and a second section adapted to receive a connector of a cable assembly. The first section has a card edge receiving slot and spring contacts can be inserted thereinto. The second section is located parallel to, but offset from the first section such that when a printed circuit board is inserted into the assembly, a connector located in the second section can receive contact pins projecting from the printed circuit board. The assembly frame can be snap-locked into an electronic component chassis and the connector can be snap-locked into the second section of the frame.
