Abstract

The present invention involves an outer housing, having a tab or plurality of tabs, the housing accommodating a seal (seal spring), a second outer housing, and a third outer housing. The tabs being conductive coated to provide an element or portion of a grounding scheme for a connector assembly containing the outer housing. The tabs make substantial contact with the third outer housing and complete a portion of the connector assembly grounding scheme. When the outer housing is provided with a seal spring, the seal spring provides more force, additional force, for higher contact pressure with the third outer housing than would be present without the seal spring.
