Abstract

The present invention relates to a multiple peripheral connection device for connecting multiple peripheral devices to a host device via a series of flexible electrical connectors. The device includes a multiplicity of port orienting structures having downstream ports provided thereon. The port orienting structures are individually movable relative to the device housing and one another so as to enable relative orientation of said downstream ports provided thereon to be adjusted to facilitate establishing the electrical coupling between the downstream ports and the multiple peripheral devices.
