The second magnetic coupler 32 is connected to the female connector 30. The second magnetic coupler 32 may be inside a slot of the female connector 30 that receives the edge 18 of the PCB 10 or it may be outside of the slot. In an example embodiment, the magnetic coupler 32 is positioned inside the slot of the female connector 30. While the male edge connector 20 is inserted into the female connector 30, the one or more pins 26 along the edge 18 of the PCB 10 are adapted to contact the one or more pins 36 of the female connector 30 to establish one or more electrical connections. The first magnetic coupler 22 is adapted to establish a first force of attraction with the second magnetic coupler 32 of the female connector 30. According to various aspects of the present disclosure, the first force of attraction is a magnetic force of attraction. The first force of attraction is adapted to retain the edge 18 of the PCB 10 inserted into the female connector 30, which in turn retains the pins 26 in contact with and electrically connected to the pins 36. In other words, the force that holds the PCB 10, and the male edge connector 20 in particular, in the female connector 30 is a magnetic force rather than a mechanical force. The force of contact between the pins 26 and the pins 36, and the force of contact between the PCB 10 and the sides of the female connector 30 may provide some mechanical force that operates to retain the male edge connector 20 inserted into the female connector 30; however, the majority of the force that retains the male edge connector 20 inserted into the female connector 30 is the magnetic attractive force of attraction between the magnetic coupler 22 and the magnetic coupler 32.
