Zusammenfassung:A card edge connector for connecting conductive layers on two coplanar printed circuit boards without the use of a jumper cable. The housing of the connector is divided into two identical mated parts which are joined along facing edges thereof. A row of contact compartments are formed in each of the two parts that open at the facing edges thereof to provide interconnected pairs of compartments. Printed circuit board receiving slots are formed in the two parts which open at the remote edges thereof. A unitary contact in each of the interconnected compartments is formed with oppositely extending integral spring elements which extend into the slots for engagement with conductive layers on printed circuit boards inserted in the slots, whereby such layers are electrically interconnected by the contact.
