An adapter for interconnecting receptacle contact sections of opposing connectors includes a housing and a plurality of contacts contained therein and having first and second pin contact sections extending in first and second arrays from first and second mating faces of the adapter matable with the receptacle contact sections of the connectors. A pair of side walls extend along two opposing sides of the first array to leading edges, and a plurality of latching ledges extend inwardly from the leading edges to latch behind corresponding latching surfaces along outer surfaces of one of the connectors, while being matable with the other connector without latching thereto, facilitating disassembly, all without requiring modification to the connectors. The side walls deflect outwardly as the latching ledges pass over side surfaces of the one connector until latched. The adapter is useful in interconnecting two circuit boards stacked in parallel a fixed distance apart, where the connectors are mounted to the boards, in a manner permitting disassembly of the boards.
