ABSTRACT:
A female pin connector is disclosed which inhibits damaging levels of an electrostatic discharge from entering the unmated pin connector. The female pin connector supports a conductive barrier member at the mating end of the pin contacts. The conductive barrier member, which can be in the form of a conductive sheet, strip, wire, printed circuit or the like is located outward from and encompasses the mating end of the pin contacts. The conductive barrier member is adapted to be coupled to a member which can receive and safely dissipate the electrostatic discharge.
