Abstract
A combination connector may include a first connector housed within a housing and configured to be communicatively coupled to an information handling resource, the first connector configured to receive connectors of a first form factor and to communicatively couple a corresponding connector of the first form factor received by the first connector to the information handling resource, and a second connector housed within the housing and configured to be communicatively coupled to the information handling resource, the second connector configured to receive connectors of a second form factor and to communicatively couple a corresponding connector of the second form factor received by the second connector to the information handling resource. A first footprint of the corresponding connector of the first form factor as engaged with the first connector may be overlapping with a second footprint of the corresponding connector of the second form factor as engaged with the second connector.
