ABSTRACT:
In an electrical connector of the plug type and a corresponding receptacle therefor, said plug connector comprises a dielectric housing member having terminal-receiving passageways therein in which electrical terminals are latchably secured, and said terminals have contact sections extending forward from said housing member and are electrically connected to electrical conductors of a shielded cable. Metal clamshell members are mounted on said housing member forming an outer contact which extends forward to cover said contact sections of said terminals. The conductive shield of said cable surrounds a rear section of said outer contact and is surrounded by a ferrule member which is crimped to secure said shield to said outer contact, and said clamshell members to said housing; said ferrule is also crimped to an insulating jacket of said cable, and an insulating sleeve is disposed around said outer contact and said cable. A receptacle is provided which has a dielectric housing having a terminal-receiving section surrounded by a channel for receiving a front section of said outer contact of said plug connector, and a hood section surrounding said channel, both said sections having opposed U-shaped recesses communicating with said channel forming a means for polarizing said plug connector in said receptacle. Said receptacle has terminals secured therein which have forked contact sections to electrically receive sections extending outwardly from said receptacle housing for electrical contact sections of said plug terminals and which also have other contact connection to a printed circuit board. A ground terminal is secured to said receptacle and has ground contact means exterior of said housing.
