A holding frame for connector includes different latch and spring elements on opposite side walls of a base frame attached and project with their respective guiding portion whose T- or L-shaped post. The guiding portion ensures through its catching funnel for a comfortable insertion of the connector modules in the correct polarization and thereby, and while holding the then in the holding frame latched connector modules, stabilizing the post. In the construction of the holding frame is a permutation of various latch and spring elements on the base frame by an interaction of their fixing contour with a fixing contour of the respective side wall of the base frame prevented. Due to the special shape of the latch and spring elements, a cable connection-side removal of a connector module is possible if the holding frame is already installed in a commercially available attachment housing.

Holding frame for connector

Disclosed is a connector assembly having a first connector part and a second connector part. The first connector part includes a lever mounted on a base body of the first connector part for pivotable movement about a pivot axis (C) between first and second positions relative to the base body. The connector assembly can be brought from a ready-to-mate state into a mated state by relative movement of the first and second connector parts towards each other along a connection axis and vice versa. At least one engaging portion of the lever interacts with at least one counter-engaging portion of the second connector part in such a way, that the connector assembly is forcibly brought from the mated to the ready-to-mate state by pivoting the lever from the first position into the second position when the connector assembly is in the mated state.
