ABSTRACT:
An electrical connector (10) comprised of intermating halves (12, 80) including snap rings (58, 150), a shroud (50) and sleeve (140) of geometries allowing blind-mating of the connector halves with both halves being readily snapped into block apertures (68, 130) of housings with sufficient axial float to assure proper mating with varying parts tolerances, and with the snap rings not bound by an axial spring element (106) employed to take up such tolerance.
