Abstract
A connector includes a connector base, a contact housing, and a floating latch. The connector base has a first bottom surface, and the contact housing has a second bottom surface. The floating latch couples the contact housing to the connector base. The floating latch is adapted to allow the first and second bottom surfaces to move relative to one another.
