Connector for multi-layered board

A connection assembly, the connection assembly comprising:

• a circuit board including a plurality of layers arranged upon each other in a vertical direction, at least one of the layers including an insertion slot disposed along a mating edge of the circuit board, the insertion slot defining an interior receptacle for receiving a mating end of a cable, the interior receptacle having a bottom surface, the circuit board further including at least one conductive pattern provided on the bottom surface, the circuit board further including at least one first terminal disposed and extending vertically upwardly within the insertion slot from the at least one conductive pattern, the first terminal having a first contact portion disposed on a first vertically extending side of the first terminal;
• and,
• a cable, the cable having a flat mating end, the cable mating end being insertable into and removeable from the insertion slot of the circuit board, the cable mating end further including at least one second terminal, the second terminal having a first contact portion disposed on a first side of the second terminal, in opposition to the first contact portion of the first terminal.
