Wie würdet ihr "engage" in diesem Zusammenhang verstehen?

The mobile communication device includes a mobile connector port with data lines and a supply line. The mobile connector port ***engages*** a corresponding host connector port on the host device having data and supply lines.

Explanation:
"Das mobile Kommunikationsgerät wird über einen Steckverbinder für Datentransfer und Stromversorgung mit dem (entsprechenden) Steckanschluss des Basisgerätes/der Basisstelle verbunden. Wenn das Mobilgerät an die Basisstelle angeschlossen wird, erfolgt zuerst eine Synchronisierung und daraufhin die Initialisierung der beiden Geräte. Danach kann über die Versorgungsleitung ein Ladestrom in das mobile Gerät fließen."
