Abstract

Two dielectric housings are mounted respectively to printed circuit boards. When the housings are mated together the two printed circuit boards will be connected electrically together with pins on the one board within receptacles of the other board. One of the housings is connected to an edge margin of the board and is provided with a chamfered lip which covers the edge of the board and provides a polarizing structure to permit interconnection between the two housings when oriented as desired.
