ABSTRACT:
An environmentally sealed connector assembly includes interfitting manually telescoping separable plug and receptacle connectors. Each connector includes an outer metallic shell, with the plug connector telescopically interfitting the receptacle shell. A manually compressible resilient split ring is captively mounted on the receptacle shell, and has inwardly extending tab portions communicating with the plug shell when the two shells are intermated. The plug shell includes a tab-receiving channel which locks with the split ring upon telescopic mating of the two connector parts.
