Abstract

A partition mechanism is arranged in a shell of a receptacle connector so that a connector interface defined by the shell is partitioned into two interface portions, one of which has a shape different from the other. Therefore a mating connector for the connector can be connected with one or two interface portions, depending on a shape of a connector interface of the mating connector. In an example, a plug connector for high resolution signals is connected with two interface portions of the receptacle connector, while another plug connector for low resolution signals is connected with only one interface portion of the receptacle connector.
