ABSTRACT:
A system of keying of a panel mounted connector and a mating connector is provided where each of the connectors is of the type having forward and rearward thin walled metal shells clinched together about their flanged edges to retain a housing means therewithin, with the forward and rearward shells having adjacent apertured lateral flanges enabling mounting of either one of the connectors to a panel at an I/O port of an electronic apparatus by screw means. The keying system includes a pair of key members each securable to the front of the forward shell at a respective lateral flange, by the corresponding screw means extending through the apertures of the rearward and forward shell flanges and threaded into a threaded key member aperture. The key members may have octagonal cross-sections and are seated within correspondingly octagonally shaped flange apertures of the forward shell only, held against the front surface of the rearward shell. The screw means for the connector to be panel mounted comprise the panel mounting means and extend first through respective panel holes adjacent the panel cutout and aligned with the shell flange apertures.
