ABSTRACT:
A connector assembly for a vial is disclosed. The connector assembly features a protective cap, a collar attachable to the rim of the vial, and a crimp cap for securing the collar to the rim. The collar features a flexible skirt provided adjacent the proximal end of the collar that is foldable about the underside portion of the vial rim. One or more ribs are provided adjacent a distal portion of the collar to seal against the stopper obturating the vial. The crimp cap can be supplied preattached to the collar in an uncrimped condition. When crimped, the crimp cap exerts a force against the distal end of the collar and the flexible skirt folded about the rim to secure the collar to the vial. A vial access device is contained within the collar
