Connector

An edge connector is configured to connect to a circuit board. The edge connector includes a base wall, a first terminal mount extending upwardly from the base wall, the first terminal mount having a plurality of passageways, terminals mounted in the passageways, a second terminal mount extending upwardly from the base wall, the second terminal being spaced from the first terminal mount, the second terminal mount having a plurality of passageways extending therethrough, terminals mounted in the passageways of the second terminal mount, and a moveable latch extending from the upper surface of the base wall, the latch positioned between the first and second terminal mounts. Each terminal mount extends along part of the length of the base wall such that a platform is formed by the upper surface of the base wall rearwardly of the terminal mounts. A latch protection wall extends from each terminal mount to the rear end of the base wall, and the latch protection walls are proximate to the latch.

Connector shell assembly

A connector system according to some embodiments of the disclosure includes first and second connectors. Each connector includes a housing, a terminal retainer having electrical terminals that are connected to a cable mounted therein. The housings are configured to mate together. One connector includes a locking protrusion on the housing, a first sleeve which is moveable relative to the housing, a second sleeve attached to the first sleeve and which is moveable relative to the first sleeve and relative to the housing, and a biasing member mounted between the first housing and the second sleeve. The biasing member is configured to bias the first and second sleeves toward a mating end. The housing of the second connector has a flexible finger configured to cause movement of the second sleeve relative to the first sleeve and further configured to releasably engage the locking protrusion on the first housing.
