This coupling mechanism consists of a very simple metal-to-metal contact mating. Requires tight manufacturing tolerances to ensure high performance. No positive confirmation of mating. Most blind-mate designs use a slide-on or push-on mating.

Connector series featuring this mechanism include: 1.0/2.3, BMA, BZ, G, MBX, MXP, and more.
