A system for distributing signals between a first seat and a second seat
of a platform. The system generally includes an elongated bus and a
connector operable to provide a connection between the bus and the
passenger seats. Signals can be transmitted between the bus and the
passenger seats, via the connector, at any point along the power bus,
thus eliminating the need to run separate connections between the signal
source and each seat. The bus is connected to the connector by depressing
the bus upon the connector. This system and method significantly reduces
the amount of time, energy, and expense necessary to individually wire
each passenger seat to receive signals, such as power and/or data.
