ABSTRACT:
An electrical connector has a pair of mating halves comprising a plug and a receptacle mounted on the respective ends of cables to be joined. The plug and receptacle each have a peripheral surface or shell and removable insulated inserts mounted therein through which electrical contacts extend. Spring fingers mounted on thee peripheral surfaces of the plug and receptacle retain the inserts and make electrical contact between the plug and receptacle. Bands hold the cables against the inserts to relieve the strain on the electrical contacts. Environmental seals are provided to prevent the ingress of contaminants into the connector. A releasable locking ring secures the plug and receptacle together.
