Abstract

A connection interface with a female portion for interconnection with a conductive male portion or a capacitive coupling male portion interface provides conductive coupling when interconnected with the conductive male portion and capacitive coupling when coupled with the capacitive coupling male portion. The female portion may include a spring basket dimensioned to receive a pin of the conductive male portion and to seat within a socket of the conductive male portion, separated by an inner conductor dielectric spacer.
