1. A system for forming an electrical connection, the system comprising:
- a transceiver dongle;
an input device communicatively coupled to the transceiver dongle through a wireless connection, the input device having a transceiver, a processing module, and a power store, the power store providing power to the processing module and to the transceiver;
a cord having a first connector and a second connector, the first connector electrically coupled to the transceiver dongle, the second connector electrically coupled to the input device, the cord forming an electrical connection between the transceiver dongle and the input device, the input device receiving power to charge its power store through the electrical connection;
a first magnetic coupling exerting magnetic forces between the first connector and the transceiver dongle; and
a second magnetic coupling exerting magnetic forces between the second connector and the input device.

Abstract
Concepts for forming an electrical connection between devices are disclosed. A cord for transferring electrical power and signals can be provided to connect a first device to a second device. One or more magnetic couplings can be provided to exert magnetic forces between the cord and the first device and/or between the cord and the second device. The one or more magnetic couplings can allow transfer of electrical power and signals therethrough.
