A connector to connect an electronic module to an edge of a first electronic circuit board is described. The module has a second electronic circuit board. The connector has a top part that houses a first row of I/Os. The top part is to be placed on a surface of the first electronic circuit board. The connector has a bottom part that houses a second row of I/Os. The bottom part is to be placed on an opposite surface of the first electronic circuit board, wherein, the top and bottom parts form inner and outer stand-offs when mater together. The inner stand-off is to reside within a through hole of the first electronic circuit board. The outer stand-off is to reside within free space off the edge of the first electronic circuit board. The second electronic circuit board is to be pressed in between the first row of I/Os and the second row of I/Os when the module is connected to the connector.
