ABSTRACT:
A connector assembly comprises a female connector having a protruding portion extending from one end and with one or more sockets therein and a male connector having one or more pins for being received in a different one of the sockets and a retractable pin shield member in which the pins are recessed when the shield member is in a forward position. The pin shield member includes a cavity for receiving the protruding portion of the female connector and as the connectors are progressively engaged the protruding portion is urged against the shield member causing it to become gradually retracted and exposing the pins which are then progressively received in the sockets of the female connector.
