Abstract
A bridge power connector includes upper and lower connector assemblies. The upper connector assembly has an upper housing holding an upper power conductor connected to a first electrical component. The lower connector assembly has a lower housing holding a lower power conductor electrically connected to a second electrical component. The upper housing is removably coupled to the lower housing using securing mechanisms to form a low-profile housing. The upper power conductor extends from a first side of the low-profile housing while the lower power conductor extends from a second side of the low-profile housing. The upper and lower power conductors extend along a mating plane of the low-profile housing. The upper power conductor is separable from the lower power conductor when the upper housing is removed from the lower housing.
