| 1. An electrical connector comprising:
a plurality of substantially planar signal transmission bodies (SPSTB), the SPSTBs being disposed parallel to one another,
wherein each SPSTBs comprises a printed circuit structure with a plurality of planar sliding surfaces;
an insulative housing that retains the plurality of SPSTBs;
a self-adjusting surface-mount attachment structure that is confined by a guide; and
a layer of low melting-temperature metal disposed between the self-adjusting surface-mount attachment structure and the planar
sliding surface of one of the SPSTBs so that if the layer melts the self-adjusting surface-mount attachment structure can
slide in the guide on the planar sliding surface with respect to the SPSTB with molten metal contacting both the self-adjusting
attachment structure and the planar sliding surface.
