ABSTRACT:
The present invention involves a universal connector assembly for electronic interconnection. The connector assembly includes a printed circuit board to which a male insert is in electrical communication. The male insert includes a strain relief tail connected to the printed circuit board and extends to a contact head. The assembly further includes a female socket for receiving the contact head of the male insert. The female socket has receiving members extending from a base to respective ends. The ends are biasingly spaced apart to define an opening through which the male insert is disposed for electrical contact with the female socket. The receiving members have an inside contact surface and an outside surface wherein the inside surface is configured to complement the outer contact wall of the male insert for electrical engagement when the male insert is disposed through the opening. The assembly further comprises a connector housing to which the base of the female socket is attached.
