Patent ID: 8517751

Claim:
A plug connector comprising: a body; a connector tab extending away from the body, the connector tab having width, height and length dimensions and comprising a conductive frame that defines a shape of the connector tab, the conductive frame having first and second opposing sides extending in the width and length dimensions, and third and fourth opposing sides extending between the first and second sides in the height and length dimensions, the first side including a first opening and the second side including a second opening directly opposite the first opening; a first plurality of external contacts carried by the tab in a first contact region formed in the first opening of the conductive frame, wherein dielectric material separates each of the first plurality of contacts from adjacent contacts and from the conductive frame; and a second plurality of external contacts carried by the tab in a second contact region formed in the second opening of the conductive frame, wherein each contact in the second plurality of contacts is positioned directly opposite a contact in the first plurality of contacts and dielectric material separates each of the second plurality of contacts from adjacent contacts and from the conductive frame.
