Abstract:
An electrical connector includes a housing and a plurality of signal conductors held within the housing. The housing includes a mating shroud protruding forward from a front wall of the housing and defining a port that receives a mating circuit card therein. Each of the signal conductors includes a mating contact disposed within the mating shroud and a mounting contact that projects beyond a bottom end of the housing to electrically connect to a circuit board. The mounting contacts are located within a termination area of the electrical connector. The housing defines a nesting cavity extending rearward from the front wall along the bottom end. The nesting cavity is disposed between the mating shroud and the termination area along a longitudinal axis of the electrical connector. The nesting cavity is configured to accommodate a discrete, second connector that is mounted to the circuit board.

Claim (Index 1):
An electrical connector comprising:\n a housing including a front wall and a mating shroud protruding forward from the front wall, the mating shroud defining a port configured to receive a mating circuit card therein; and a plurality of signal conductors held within the housing and secured in position relative to one another via one or more dielectric bodies, each of the signal conductors including a mating contact that is disposed within the mating shroud and a mounting contact that projects beyond a bottom end of the housing, the mounting contacts located within a termination area of the electrical connector and configured to electrically connect to a circuit board; wherein the housing defines a nesting cavity extending rearward from the front wall to a back end of the nesting cavity and located along the bottom end of the housing, the nesting cavity disposed between the mating shroud and the termination area along a longitudinal axis of the electrical connector such that the back end of the nesting cavity is in front of the mounting contacts of the signal conductors, wherein the nesting cavity is configured to accommodate a discrete, second connector that is mounted to the circuit board.
