ABSTRACT:
A floating connector housing has an attachment area for attaching a first connector. The floating connector housing also has two or more flanges for connecting the floating connector housing to a fixed surface. The two or more flanges allow the floating connector to have limited movement within the plane of the fixed surface. The floating connector housing also has one or more alignment pins for aligning the floating connector housing to allow the first connector to couple to a second connector. The floating connector housing can be used to turn a non-floating connector into a floating connector.
