Abstract
Communication system including a circuit board having opposite board sides and mounting areas located on at least one of the board sides. The circuit board includes conductive traces that extend along the circuit board between corresponding mounting areas. The circuit board has mounting holes extending therethrough. The communication system also includes board connectors mounted to the circuit board at the mounting areas. The board connectors are communicatively coupled to one another through the conductive traces. The communication system also includes cable connectors secured to the circuit board and positioned at the mounting holes. The communication system also includes communication cables interconnecting corresponding cable connectors to one another.
