A connector assembly is disclosed for making a connection between a tubular adapter component and a port connector which, once connected to each other, are not able to be disassembled. At least one of the tubular adapter component or the port component may have at least one cutout section and the other may have a projecting tab. A tubular sleeve is positioned on the port component and is non-rotatable and non-removable from the port component. The tubular sleeve has at least one flexible cam locking post. When the adapter component is slidably engaged with the port component the cutout section and the projecting tab engage to prevent sliding withdrawal of the adapter component from the port component. The flexible cam locking post also engages with the cutout section and prevents the adapter component from rotating.
