Connector device
First Claim
1. A connector device, comprising:
- a first connector part operatively connectable to a first external unit and a second connector part operatively connectable to a second external unit, wherein said first connector part is connectable to said second connector part enabling communication between the first and second external units, wherein each connector part comprises a surface in which a plurality of transmitting/receiving areas are formed, wherein the first connector part is connectable to the second connector part via said transmitting/receiving areas and wherein at least the first connector part comprises a first processing unit operatively connected to the plurality of transmitting/receiving areas, said processing unit being arranged to detect a first subset of transmitting/receiving areas in communication with a corresponding second subset of receiving/transmitting areas in the second connector part and to control communication between the first and second external units over said first subset of transmitting/receiving areas.

Abstract
A connector device comprising including a first connector part operatively connectable to a first external unit and a second connector part operatively connectable to a second external unit. The first connector part is connectable to the second connector part enabling communication between the first and second external units. Each connector part includes a surface in which a plurality of transmitting/receiving areas are formed. The first connector part is connectable to the second connector part via the transmitting/receiving areas. At least the first connector part includes a first processing unit operatively connected to the plurality of transmitting/receiving areas. The processing unit is arranged to detect a first subset of transmitting/receiving areas in communication with a corresponding second subset of receiving/transmitting areas in the second connector part and to control communication between the first and second external units over the first subset of transmitting/receiving areas.
