Patent ID: 8596881

Claim:
A power and data connector, comprising: a lip surface; a tapered extension protruding from the lip surface; a planar connection surface at a terminal end of the tapered extension, the planar connection surface being symmetrical about a first axis and symmetrical about a second axis perpendicular to the first axis, the first axis and the second axis being perpendicular to a connection axis of the planar connection surface; a first power interface on the planar connection surface, the first power interface aligned with the first axis and spaced a first distance away from the second axis; a second power interface on the planar connection surface, the second power interface aligned with the first axis and spaced the first distance away from the second axis opposite the first power interface such that the first power interface and the second power interface are symmetrical about the second axis; one or more magnetic attractors flush with or recessed behind the planar connection surface, the tapered extension, and/or the lip surface.
