A connector assembly includes a connector housing defining a cavity, a cylindrical terminal disposed within the cavity, a primary terminal locking feature configured to retain the cylindrical terminal within the cavity, and a secondary terminal locking feature configured to retain the cylindrical terminal within the cavity. The secondary terminal locking feature has a pair of arms defining concave features that engage the cylindrical terminal as the concave features of the pair of arms are wedged between the cylindrical terminal and inner walls of the cavity.

Coaxial connector assembly

A connector assembly, such as a shielded high voltage electrical connector assembly, includes an outer housing having a guide post extending parallel to a mating axis and an inner housing slideably attached to the outer housing. The inner housing is configured to move along the mating axis from a first position to a second position. The inner housing comprises a guide tube that extends parallel to the mating axis. The guide tube defines a guide cavity that extends through the guide tube in a direction parallel to the mating axis. At least a portion of the guide post is disposed within the guide cavity when the inner housing is in the first position and in the second position.
