Patent ID: 7029289

Claim:
A connector system comprising: a first housing having a first header positioned on a mating face, said first header including at least one conductive pad that is in electrical communication with a conductor, a second housing that is mateable with said first housing and including a second header positioned on a mating face, said second header including at least one conductive pad that is electrically engaged with a conductor and is positioned in confronting relation with said at least one conductive pad of said first header; and an interposer located between said first header and said second header, with at least one woven comprising an annealed and unitary metal structure having a tubular configuration contact that extends continuously through said interposer so as to have a first portion projecting outwardly toward said at least one conductive pad of said first header and a second portion projecting outwardly toward said at least one conductive pad of said second header, wherein said interposer is movable between (i) a first position wherein said first and second portions of said at least one woven contact are spaced away from said at least one conductive pad, and (ii) a second position wherein said first and second portions of said at least one woven contact electrically engage said at least one conductive pad.
