Abstract: An edge-mount connector that self-adjusts against an edge thickness of a substrate, such as a printed circuit board. Rotation of fasteners, along with direct or indirect engagement between the fasteners and corresponding surfaces on the edge-mount connector or a clamp of the edge-mount connector can walk the edge-mount connector towards and against the edge thickness of the substrate.

Abstract: An electrical connector includes a housing and an aligner. The aligner is defined by a connector base of the housing or by an alignment peg. The aligner defined by the connector base is configured to cooperate with a corresponding fiducial to properly align the electrical connector on a mounting surface of a substrate. The aligner defined by an alignment peg includes a main body and an embossed portion that defines a protrusion that extends from the main body. The embossed portion is configured to mate with a raised or recessed portion of a substrate to properly locate and align the electrical connector to the substrate.
