Abstract
Connector receptacles may be provided, where a multiple of such connector receptacles may be readily aligned to openings in a device enclosure, particularly where the openings are located on a curved or otherwise non-planar surface of the device enclosure. One example may provide a connector assembly that includes a plurality of connector receptacles. The connector receptacles in a connector assembly may be accurately aligned or registered to each other, and the connector assembly may be accurately aligned to a device enclosure. In this way, several connector receptacles may be accurately aligned to openings in the device enclosure. In another example, two or more connector receptacles may have faces that are at an oblique angle relative to each other.
