- the connector socket 14 is inserted in the illustrated embodiment of the device interior in the protective housing 16 and fixed there exact position. Also an insertion from the outside conceivable.
- the protective housing 16 is used to attach a connector housing which encloses the plug-in connector 14 to be inserted into the connector plug. Since the plug housing is fitted accurately and sealed onto the protective housing 16, an exact positioning of the socket 14 in the protective housing 16 is necessary.
- the exact positioning of the socket 14 in the protective housing 16 and thus in the device wall 10 has the consequence that dimensional tolerances affect the installation of the device circuit board 12 with respect to the device wall 10 on the connection of the socket 14 to the device circuit board 12.
- These position tolerances are compensated according to the invention in that the connector socket 14 is arranged in a socket housing 22 and is connected to a printed circuit board 24, which is also arranged fixed in position in the socket housing 22.
- the printed circuit board 24 protrudes from the socket housing 22 at the end facing away from the socket 14. At the free edge of the printed circuit board 24 protruding from the socket housing 22, opposite the socket 14, printed circuit board edge plug contacts 26 are formed.
- edge plug contacts 26 is the Printed circuit board 24 is inserted into a printed circuit board edge connector socket 28 which is arranged on the device circuit board 12.
- the plug-in direction of the printed circuit board 24 with its edge plug contacts 26 in the edge connector socket 28 coincides with the plug-in direction of the connector socket 14.
- the contact length of the edge plug contacts 26 and the edge socket 28 in the insertion allows for a tolerance in the insertion of the circuit board 24 in the edge connector 28 and thus a distance tolerance between the fixed in the protective housing 16 and the device wall 10 connector socket 14 and in the device built-in device board 12. Even in the direction perpendicular to the plug axis, ie in the plane of the device board 12, low installation tolerances can be compensated.

Since the printed circuit board 24 is parallel to the bottom of the insulating body 34, the plugging direction of the socket 14 with the socket contacts 38 in the same direction as the plugging direction of the edge plug contacts 26 runs.
- the insulating body 34 is enclosed by a shroud jacket 40.
- the shroud jacket 40 abuts the four side surfaces of the insulating body 34 and closes the rear surface of the insulating body 34 facing away from the socket 14 except for an entry slot for the printed circuit board 24.
