Patent ID: 7497738

Claim:
An electrical connector interacting between two different interfaces, comprising: a first printed circuit board defining a first surface, an opposite second surface and a plurality of first through holes therethrough, the first surface having a contacting region near one end of the first printed circuit board for contacting a first row of terminals of a first type electrical connector; a second printed circuit board defining a first surface facing the second surface of the first printed circuit board, an opposite second surface and a plurality of second through holes therethrough in alignment with the first through holes of the first printed circuit board, the first and second surfaces each having a contacting region near one end of the second printed circuit board for contacting a second and a third rows of terminals of the first connector; one of the first and the second printed circuit boards having a pair of contacting regions on the two surfaces near the other end thereof for contacting two rows of terminals of a second connector; a plurality of conducting pins inserted through and retained in the first and second through holes of the first and second printed circuit boards to form electrical connection between the first and second printed circuit boards; and a conductive shell fully enclosing the first and second printed circuit boards and attached to at least one of the first and second printed circuit boards.
