Abstract
An electrical connector assembly that includes a first connector component that has a housing supporting at least one first exposed contact at an interface surface thereof and has a body portion for terminating a first cable. A second connector component is adapted to slidably receive the first component such that the components are mated and unmated in the same direction. The second component includes a housing supporting at least one second exposed contact at an interface surface thereof and has a body portion for terminating a second cable. When the first component is received in the second component, the components are mated such that the first exposed contact engages the second exposed contact, thereby forming a first electrical connection therebetween and a longitudinal axis of the first cable is spaced from and substantially parallel to a longitudinal axis of the second cable.
