A male connector, comprising:

• a housing comprising:
• a front portion;
• a back portion;
• a pair of longitudinal sides that extend from the front portion to the back portion, the pair of longitudinal sides including a first longitudinal side and a second longitudinal side;
• a planar side that extends from the front portion to the back portion, the planar side connecting first ends of the pair of longitudinal sides;
• a rounded side that extends from the front portion to the back portion, the rounded side connecting second ends of the pair of longitudinal sides, the second ends being arranged opposite to the first ends;
• a recess defined by the pair of longitudinal sides, the planar side, and the rounded side, wherein the recess extends from the front portion to the back portion;
• a plurality of pins that extend from the back portion towards the front portion, wherein the plurality of pins are arranged along a line parallel to the pair of longitudinal sides and each of a plurality of sockets is configured to receive one of the plurality of pins;
• and,
• at least one electromagnetic interference (EMI) shield protrusion that extends from the back portion towards the front portion, wherein the at least one EMI shield protrusion is configured to provide EMI protection during signal transfer.

A connector system, comprising:

• a male connecter comprising a male housing defining a recess and a plurality of pins arranged within the recess;
• and
• a female connector comprising a female housing configured to be insertable into the recess of the male housing;
• wherein the female housing comprises:
• a female front portion;
• a female back portion;
• a female pair of longitudinal sides that extend from the female front portion to the female back portion, the female pair of longitudinal sides including a first female longitudinal side and a second female longitudinal side;
• a female planar side that extends from the female front portion to the female back portion, the female planar side connecting first ends of the female pair of longitudinal sides;
• a female rounded side that extends from the female front portion to the female back portion, the female rounded side connecting second ends of the female pair of longitudinal sides, the second ends being arranged opposite to the first ends;
• a front surface defined at the female front portion by the female pair of longitudinal sides, the female planar side, and the female rounded side;
• and
• a plurality of sockets formed at the front surface such that the plurality of sockets extend from the front surface into the female housing, wherein the plurality of sockets are arranged along a line parallel to the pair of longitudinal sides and each of the plurality of sockets is configured to receive one of the plurality of pins;
• wherein the female housing further comprises:
• at least one spring groove formed in at least one of the first female longitudinal side or the second female longitudinal side, wherein the at least one spring groove extends from the female front portion towards the female back portion;
• and
• at least one shield spring, each formed in a corresponding one of the at least one spring groove, wherein each of the at least one shield spring is configured to be compressed by an EMI shield protrusion of the at least one EMI shield protrusion that is received within the corresponding one of the at least one spring groove, and wherein the male housing comprises:
• a male front portion;
• a male back portion;
• a male pair of longitudinal sides that extend from the male front portion to the male back portion, the male pair of longitudinal sides including a first male longitudinal side and a second male longitudinal side;
• a male planar side that extends from the male front portion to the male back portion, the male planar side connecting first ends of the male pair of longitudinal sides;
• a male rounded side that extends from the male front portion to the male back portion, the male rounded side connecting second ends of the male pair of longitudinal sides, the second ends being arranged opposite to the first ends;
• and
• the recess defined by the male pair of longitudinal sides, the male planar side, and the male rounded side, wherein the recess extends from the male front portion to the male back portion;
• and,
• wherein the male connector further comprises at least one electromagnetic interference (EMI) shield protrusion that extends from the male back portion towards the male front portion, wherein the at least one EMI shield protrusion is configured to provide EMI protection during signal transfer.
