<p>A connector assembly (10) includes two interengaging plug connector and receptacle connector halves (16,18) with power and circuitry terminals (52,82,38,74) integrated therein. Each of the plug and receptacle connector halves (16,18) include respective dual plug and receptacle housings (60,20) spaced apart from each other in a substantially parallel relationship. The dual connector housings (60,20) of the plug and receptacle connector halves (16,18) are evenly spaced apart by bridging pieces (50,80) which extend between the connector housings to connect them together. The bridging pieces may either be integrally formed with the connector housings (20,60) or they may be separately formed (208) from the connector housings and include engagement members (210,212) which engage the connector housings. The bridging pieces (50,80) have power terminals (52,82) disposed therein so that the connector effects a connection not only between signal circuits of the circuit boards, but also between power circuits. <IMAGE></p> |
