Abstract

Electrical connectors with improved water resistance. A connector may have an outer shell and an inner shell disposed in the outer shell. The inner shell may extend beyond the outer shell in a mating direction. A portion of the inner shell that extends beyond the outer shell in the mating direction may have a surface roughness higher than portions of the inner shell such that a seal can be securely attached to the rough portion of the inner shell. The seal can be made of an adhesive shaped and cured when disposed on the rough portion. The seal can be spaced from the outer shell such that the seal can abut a mating component when the connector is pressed, in the mating direction, against the mating component, blocking ingress of environmental contaminants. The seal may also block any path between the mating ends of the inner and outer shells.
