ABSTRACT:
A connector assembly comprises first and second connecting parts which are oriented for joining by a guide post and a cable having a hydraulic hose core terminating in a radially expandable mandrel. The cable is threaded through a bore in the second connecting part and located in the bore of the guide post by a hydraulic latch. The cable is tensioned and the second connecting part slid along the cable to the receive guide post in the opening thus orienting the two connecting parts for proper connection.
