ABSTRACT:
An integral elastomeric sealing member for an electrical connector assembly mountable to a panel has a transverse gasket section and an axial seal section extending rearwardly from an aperture through the gasket section. The gasket section is compressed between a mounting face of the receptacle and the panel, and the axial seal section extends along the inside of the plug-receiving cavity thereof and has an inner dimension just less than the outer dimension of the plug section of the plug connector which it seals around when the plug is in mating engagement with the receptacle. A tapered portion around the plug section acts as a camming surface to gently deform the axial seal section outwardly against the cavity wall, while the gasket section is held firmly between the panel and the receptacle connector.
