1. A connector assembly comprising:
- a connector plate with a first side, a second side and at least two lumens extending from the first side to the second side;
a non-conductive casing disposed at least partially within the at least two lumens;
at least two exposed contacts adjacent to the first side of the connector plate;
at least two internal contacts adjacent to the second side of the connector plate; and
at least two conductive paths through the non-conductive casing, wherein each of the conductive paths electrically couples a respective one of the exposed contacts with a respective one of the internal contacts.

Abstract
A headset connector assembly that includes a connector plate, a casing, and electrical contact members is provided. The connector plate can have a first mating surface, a second mating surface, and at least two apertures existing between the first and the second mating surfaces. The casing can have a first side in contact with the first mating surface and a second side. The casing can include a protruding cavity member for each of the at least two apertures. Each protruding cavity member can extend from the first side and be constructed to fit within one of the at least two apertures. Each protruding cavity member can house an electrical contact member.

21. A connector assembly for coupling with a complementary connector, the connector assembly comprising:
-
a connector plate surface forming a first mating surface portion of a mating surface for abutting the complementary connector; a first contact surface forming a second mating surface portion of the mating surface; and a second contact surface forming a third mating surface portion of the mating surface, wherein a part of the first mating surface portion separates the second mating surface portion from the third mating surface portion. - View Dependent Claims (22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27)
