Abstract
A compact connector that mates with a complementary connector at high mating force. The connector () may have a housing () with a member () having a plurality of sides () and an opening () at a first side (), and a frame () mounted to the member () from the first side () and having a plurality of walls () so as to bound the opening (). The frame () may be made of a material that withstands forces to which the connector () may be exposed during mating. The member () may be made of a less robust material, such as plastic with thin walls () so as to enable a compact connector. The frame () and the member () may have engagement features, including latches, complementary chamfer and bevel features that may aid in mounting the frame () to the member () and locking features that resist dis-engagement of the frame () and the member ().
