ABSTRACT:
An electrical connector assembly includes a plug connector 2 and a mating connector or printed circuit board header 94 that are mated with the assistance of a cam slide 4. Channels in which the cam slide 4 shifts are formed by top rails 26 that are staggered relative to bottom rails 30 so that the rails can be formed by straight pull mold tooling without side pulls. The cam slide 4 can be inserted from opposite ends of the plug connector housing 20. At least some of the power terminals 86 are located separately from signal terminals 88 so that they can be separately sealed. A combined terminal position assurance member and seal retainer 74 is latched to the plug connector housing on the inside of power terminal cavities 52 so as not to interrupt the sealing integrity.
