Abstract
An electrical connector for sealably mounting into a frame may be manufactured using known low cost, automated processes. Contact elements are sealingly encircled by and extend through an insulating body having a frame abutting surface. A separate shroud interfits with the body at an unsealed shroud junction. A continuous compressible sealing element disposed on a frame abutting surface circumscribes and sealingly isolates an area interior of the compressible sealing element from an area exterior of the compressible sealing element. The shroud junction is entirely within an area interior of the compressible sealing element.
