ABSTRACT:
A cable connector is provided. The cable connector includes a connector housing having a cavity for receiving a contact along an axis, and the cavity has a protrusion therein. The protrusion extends through the axis so that as the contact is inserted into the cavity along the axis, the contact is deflected by the protrusion until the contact moves past the protrusion into a locked position. The contact has a body section with at least one wing extending therefrom. The wing contacts the protrusion as the contact is inserted into the cavity along the axis causing the contact to rotate about the axis.
