ABSTRACT:
An electrical connector for interconnecting first and second circuit members wherein the connector includes an insulative, e.g., plastic, housing having a cylindrical metallic conductor rod therein and at least one electrical contact positioned on or within the housing and having opposed conductive end portions. When the connector is in a non-contacting position relative to the circuit members, the contact assumes a first configuration, e.g., oval, and thereafter assumes (moves to) a second configuration, e.g., round, when contact occurs. In this second configuration, the conductive end portions of the contact are equidistant from the conductor rod, thereby assuring a predetermined level of impedance for the connector during operation thereof. An information handling system (computer) which uses such a connector is also disclosed.
