(57) An electrical connection system is comprised of male and female electrical connector
members where the male (60) and female (2) electrical connector are electrically interconnected
to printer circuit boards (50,90) where the printed circuit boards (50,90) are intended
for parallel mounting relative to one another. To reduce the vertical distance between
the facing surfaces of the electrical printed circuit boards, the printed circuit
boards include apertures (52,82) at least partly through the facing surface of the
printed circuit board, and the male and female electrical connectors (2,60) are recessed
into the apertures (52,82) of the printed circuit boards (50,90). This reduces the
distance between the upper face of the electrical connector and the corresponding
upper surface of the printed circuit board thereby providing a more dense profile
between the interconnected opposing printed circuit boards (50,90).
