1. An information handling system comprising:
a printed circuit board; and
a connector electrically and mechanically coupled to the printed circuit board and configured to receive a respective modular information handling resource in order to electrically couple, via electrically-conductive pins of the connector, the respective modular information handling resource to the printed circuit board, wherein the connector comprises:
an elongated body comprising electrically non-conductive material and including a receptacle formed therein for receiving a mating edge connector of the respective modular information handling resource;
a plurality of bus bars including a first bus bar comprising electrically conductive material, other than the electrically-conductive pins of such connector, embedded within a first elongated recess formed in an elongated exterior surface of the body and a second bus bar comprising electrically conductive material, other than the electrically-conductive pins of such connector, embedded within a second elongated recess formed in the elongated exterior surface, the first and second recesses extending a length of the elongated exterior surface between opposing ends of the elongated exterior surface; and
a first electrical termination electrically coupled to the first bus bar.
