ABSTRACT:
Electrical connectors are provided which include a hollow housing formed of electrically conductive metal, a dieletric sleeve which fits into the housing and a resilient roll-formed central signal-carrying contact that is retained by one-way press fit engagement in the dieletric sleeve. The housing is upset against the dielectric sleeve, as by staking, to assure retention of the dieletric sleeve therein. The housing includes mounting legs which are straight and are polygonal in cross-section for press-fit engagement in openings in a circuit board to mount the connector. The legs on one side of the body have cross-sections at different angular orientations relative to a radius of the body than the legs on another side. Upon removal of one such connector and replacement by a connector rotated to a different angular position than the previously installed connector, the corners of the various legs of the replacement connector will engage the periphery of each respective mating hole of the board in sectors which were not grooved by the previous insertion of a like connector, for secure press-fit mounting.
