A data communication system can include a low-profile electrical connector that is sized to be mounted onto a PCB in a gap between the PCB and a heat sink that overhangs from an IC that is mounted to the PCB. The data communication system further includes an electrical cable that extends from the electrical connector to an optical transceiver. A cable management laminate can route the electrical cables along a predetermined path. The data communication system can be disposed in a system tray that is configured to force air over the heat sink. The airflow over the heat sink can be adjustable.

An electrical connector system for electrically and mechanically connecting with a component in a motor vehicle is disclosed. The connector system includes a motor vehicle component and a male connector assembly with a male housing that receives a male terminal. This terminal includes a receiver and side walls with a contact arm that extends across an aperture in the side wall. An internal spring member with at least one spring arm resides within the male terminal receiver. A female connector assembly includes a female terminal with a receptacle that receives both the male terminal and the spring member. A female housing receives the female terminal and an extent of the male connector assembly. When the connector system moves from the partially assembled state to a connected position for connection of the vehicle component, the male connector assembly is inserted into female housing, the contact arm is brought into sliding engagement with an angled internal segment of the female housing, and the contact arm is inwardly displaced as the contact arm slidingly engages with the angled internal segment.

An elastic contact element of the electrical connector is provided and has an upper ring, a lower ring, and a plurality of elastic flat bodies connected to and located between the upper ring and the lower ring. Each one of the elastic flat bodies is strip-shaped and forms a contact portion. The elastic flat bodies are spaced apart from each other and divided into several groups according to different height positions of the contact portions. Each one of the contact portions protrudes toward a center axis. Because the elastic flat bodies are divided into several groups according to different height positions of the contact portions, the elastic flat bodies contact an inserted male probe at various positions.
