ABSTRACT:
An electrical connector for conveying signals between two circuit boards includes a first connector portion including a first array of board contacts for connection to a first corresponding footprint on a first circuit board. The connector also includes a second connector portion including a second array of board contacts for connection to a second corresponding footprint on a second circuit board. The signals include a plurality of signal groups each including a different plurality of related signals. Each of the signal groups is assigned to a grouping of related board contacts of the first array and to a corresponding grouping of related board contacts of the second array. When the first connector portion and the second connector portion are mated, each grouping of board contacts of the first array is electrically coupled to the corresponding grouping of board contacts in a transposed location in the second array.
