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 10):
A stacked dual connector system comprising:\n a first connector including a housing and a plurality of signal conductors held within the housing, the housing including a front wall and two side walls extending rearward from the front wall, the housing including an upper mating shroud protruding forward from the front wall and defining a port configured to receive a first mating circuit card therein, each of the signal conductors including a mating contact disposed within the upper mating shroud and a mounting contact that projects beyond a bottom end of the housing to electrically connect to a circuit board, the housing further defining a nesting cavity disposed vertically between the circuit board and the upper mating shroud, the nesting cavity extending rearward from the front wall to a back end of the nesting cavity, the nesting cavity located along the bottom end of the housing, wherein the back end of the nesting cavity is disposed in front of the mounting contacts of the signal conductors; and a second connector including a housing and a plurality of signal conductors held within the respective housing, the housing of the second connector including a base portion and a lower mating shroud extending from a front wall of the base portion, the lower mating shroud defining a port configured to receive a second mating circuit card therein, the base portion disposed within the nesting cavity of the first connector, the lower mating shroud disposed outside of the nesting cavity.
