What is a Floating Connector?

A floating connector is a board-to-board electromechanical interconnect for data and/or power that absorbs misalignments and small movements in multiple axes. Unlike traditional connectors, floating connectors features a spring-like mechanism to provide elasticity and take the stress off both the solder joints and contact pins
