ABSTRACT:
A user configurable integrated electrical connector assembly apparatus and method of using the electrical connector assembly to create a flexible manufacturing system are disclosed. The connector assembly is capable of being formed as a semi-finished product for inventory and at a later time may be simply and quickly reconfigured with insertable components to conform precisely to a customer's design specifications. The connector assembly includes an insulator defining a plurality of first passageways and a plurality of adjacent parallel passageways communicating with the first passageways over a portion of their length. A conductive shield surrounds the insulator and contacts the adjacent parallel passageways. The shield and the insulator can be bonded together to form a semi-finished product termed an intermediate connector assembly which may be stored in inventory and is easily and quickly reconfigured in accordance with a customer's design specifications by inserting chip type filter components such as capacitor, varistor or other electrical components into selected adjacent passageways.
