Electrical adapter for protecting electrical interfaces

摘要

An electrical adapter is provided including a board having first and second planar surfaces, a male electrical socket coupled to the first planar surface of the printed circuit board and a female electrical socket coupled to the second planar surface of the printed circuit board. The board includes electrical connectors electrically coupling the male and female electrical sockets. The male electrical socket of the adapter is suitable for temporary connection to a female electrical interface of a first electrical device, and the female electrical socket is suitable for temporary connection to a male electrical interface of a second electrical device. The opposing socket is suitable for temporary connection to a printed circuit board. In one embodiment, the electrical device is an optoelectronic device.
