ABSTRACT:
An integral shell (150) for connectors (102,132) mounted to an edge of a circuit card (100,130). The connectors are secured in cavities (152) of the shell, and the cavities are precisely referenced to a single datum defined by an alignment or datum post (160). A corresponding alignment hole (162) of the circuit card is precisely positioned with reference to the arrays of termini of the circuits, and upon mounting of the shell to the card with the datum post (160) received in the alignment hole (162), the contact sections of the terminals of the several connectors (102,132) remain precisely aligned with the termini and their terminations protected against stress during handling, mating and unmating.
