Abstract
A hermaphroditic connector for use in single or multiple twisted-pair connectivity applications is constructed using a small number of parts having a simple but durable assembly. The connector housing comprises an elongated form factor that, when mated with a similar hermaphroditic connector, forms a rigid overlapping shield around the electrical contacts of the two connectors. While unmated, the conductive tines within the connector have a default curved profile that facilitates reliable connectivity with tines of a mating connector. When the connector is mated with a similar connector, the tines are deformed to a flatter profile by support plates within the connectors, yielding a shape more conducive to high-frequency signal applications. The shape of the tines also yields multiple in-line redundant contact points to ensure reliable connectivity without adding to the width of the connector.
