Connector ring

A system comprising:

• a downhole tool disposed in a wellbore operable to make measurements of the wellbore, the downhole tool having a transmitter operable to transmit data from the downhole tool, and a receiver operable to receive data from a source external the downhole tool;
• a connector ring coupled with the downhole tool, the connector ring comprising:
• a connector ring body having a longitudinal axis,
• a transmitter sensor connector coupled with the connector ring body and extending parallel to the longitudinal axis, the transmitter sensor connector being coupled to the transmitter sensor, the transmitter sensor connector having a first end, and
• a receiver sensor connector coupled with the body and extending parallel to the longitudinal axis, the receiver sensor connector having a first end,
• wherein the first end of the transmitter sensor connector and the first end of the receiver sensor connector are staggered along the longitudinal axis;
• and
• an electronics carrier operable to be coupled with the connector ring, the electronics carrier including a carrier transmitter connector and a carrier receiver connector, the carrier transmitter connector and the carrier receiver connector corresponding to the transmitter sensor connector and the receiver sensor connector of the connector ring.

A method comprising:

• disposing a connector ring in a downhole tool, the connector ring including:
• a body extending along a longitudinal axis;
• a transmitter sensor connector coupled with the body and extending parallel to the longitudinal axis, the transmitter sensor connector having a first end;
• and
• a receiver sensor connector coupled with the body and extending parallel to the longitudinal axis, the receiver sensor connector having a first end,
• wherein the first end of the transmitter sensor connector and the first end of the receiver sensor connector are staggered along the longitudinal axis;
• coupling the transmitter sensor connectors with a corresponding carrier transmitter connector of an electronics carrier;
• and
• coupling the receiver sensor connector with a corresponding carrier receiver connector of the electronics carrier.
