Abstract

An electrical connector comprising electrical signal contacts and power contacts; and a housing. The housing has the electrical contacts connected thereto. The housing includes at least two vertically offset electrical plug receiving areas. The signal contacts extend into the receiving areas in a universal serial bus (USB) electrical conductor location configuration. The power contacts also extend into the receiving areas, but in an opposite direction from the signal contacts.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to an electrical connector, in particular to a universal serial bus electrical connector. Background technique [0002] Universal Serial Bus (USB) electrical connectors are well known in the art. There is also a USB electrical connector system known in the art that includes power contacts on the plug and in the receptacle. FCI USA sells one such USB and power connector system as part number 742394 for the receptacle and 74233 for the plug. US Patent 5,637,015 discloses a USB connector having a shield and two vertically aligned regions for receiving two USB connectors. But the socket disclosed in this patent is not suitable for connecting USB+power plug. [0003] It is desirable to provide a USB+power outlet that can receive multiple USB+power plugs. However, it is also desirable that the USB receptacle and plug remain small in size. This is especially beneficial for smaller components such as laptops or space-constrained elec...
