ABSTRACT:
A one piece bracket (2) for use in stacking, in superposed relationship, first (56) and second (58) shielded multi contact electrical connectors, comprises elongate body, having at one end thereof a top mounting face providing a seat for a grounding flange of the top connector (56) and at the other end thereof a bottom mounting face providing a seat for a flange of the bottom connector (58). A tail part (18) projects from the body (4) and carries a fastening lug in the form of a block (46) having a central bore (52) for receiving a boardlock (100) for securing the bracket (2) to a circuit board (CB). The block (46) projects below the seat for the flange of the bottom connector, so that the lower surface of the block can engage the circuit board when the bracket (2) has been mounted thereon. The elongate body (4) has a through central bore (24) through which one or more fasteners can be passed to secure the flanges to their respective seats. The bracket (2) in the preferred embodiment is symmetrical about a plane including the axes (Z, Z') of the two bores.
