Electrical connector including a connector housing having a mating side facing in a mating direction along an engagement axis. The mating side extends along a lateral axis and an orientation axis that are perpendicular to each other and the engagement axis. The connector housing also includes first and second end sides facing in opposite directions along the lateral axis and a top side facing in a direction along the orientation axis. The top side extends between the first and second end sides and is substantially planar from the first end side to the second end side. The electrical connector also includes first and second mating regions that are defined by the first and second end sides, respectively. Each of the first and second mating regions includes electrical contacts and a guide feature, wherein at least some of the electrical contacts and the guide feature are aligned with one another.
