Bei einer Vielzahl von Kontaktbereichen an der Leiterplatte werden die Kontaktbereiche dabei in einer Reihe nahe einer Leiterplattenkante Recently, more direct plug contacts are used in which a direct plug-in element directly on a support plate, e.g. a printed circuit board is plugged. In a plurality of contact areas on the circuit board, the contact areas are in a row near a circuit board edge
angeordnet. Bei einer Vielzahl von Kontaktbereichen ergibt sich dadurch eine entsprechende Länge an der Leiterplatte sowie eine komplizierte Verdrahtung auf der Leiterplatte, da dadurch die Wege zwischen den Kontaktbereichen und Bauelementen auf der Leiterplatte mit der Anzahl der Kontaktbereiche jeweils vergrößert werden müssen. Ein weiterer Problemkreis bei Direktkontaktierungen liegt darin, dass üblicherweise die Direktsteckelemente von vorne auf die  arranged. In a plurality of contact areas, this results in a corresponding length on the circuit board and a complicated wiring on the circuit board, since in this way the paths between the contact areas and components on the circuit board with the number of contact areas must each be increased. Another problem with Direktkontaktierungen is that usually the Direktsteckelemente from the front of the
