ABSTRACT:
A two-dimensional adjustable edge connector adaptor to support high bandwidth signal paths. The edge connector adapter includes a housing having a cavity formed in one side and an edge connector extending outward from an opposing side. The edge connector includes contact members that are configured to function as conventional edge connector contacts on one end, while the opposing end includes a leg that is in contact with first side of an elastomer connector disposed in the cavity. The elastomer connector facilitates electrical coupling between each contact member and a corresponding board contact on a board having a connector edge that is inserted into the cavity, wherein each board contact includes a leg that is in contact with a second side of the elastomer connector. The adjustable edge connector adaptor enables the board to be positioned in both the horizontal and vertical directions relative to the edge connector.
