Abstract

A computer system assembly that includes a substrate and a first board mounted on the substrate. A flexible cable is secured to the first board. The computer system assembly further includes a second board mounted on the substrate. The second board includes a FPC connector. The FPC connector includes a body having a channel extending through the body such that the flexible cable may be positioned in the channel and pulled entirely through the body of the FPC connector. The FPC connector further includes a latching mechanism that secures the flexible cable within the channel once the flexible cable is pulled through the FPC connector. The first board and the second board are moved closer together as the flex cable is pulled through the FPC connector before at least one of the first board and the second board is mounted on the substrate.
