Abstract: An electro-optic assembly includes a first substrate that has a first surface and a second surface that is opposite the first surface. A second substrate has a third surface and a fourth surface that is opposite the third surface. The first and second substrates are disposed in a parallel and spaced apart relationship so as to define a cavity therebetween. The second and third surfaces face each other. A seal extends between the first and second substrates. An electro-optic medium is located in the cavity and is retained by the seal. A port is at least partially defined by a port reduction member that is located between the first substrate and the second substrate.
