ABSTRACT:
The invention is directed to an electrical connector, comprising a main body having a latching arm extending therealong. The latching arm has a latching projection to engage a latching protrusion on a mating connector. A lifting arm extends from the main body and is directed towards the latching arm. The lifting arm is movable towards and away from the latching arm. The lifting arm has a ramped surface. Whereby, when the lifting arm is moved towards the latching arm, the ramped surface engages a bottom surface of the latching arm thereby deflecting the latching upwardly and away from the main body to disengage engagement between the latching arm and the latching projection.
