Abstract
A plug connector (10) has a main body (12) and contact silos (14) with contact receiving passages (22) therein. The two contact silos (14) on either end are D-shaped to provide polarization of the connector with respect to a matable connector. The connector (10) further comprises a flange (40) extending along a top wall of the connector (10). The flange (40) extends beyond the main body (10) parallel to, but spaced from, the contact silos (14). The flange (40) provides a stop to prevent improper orientation of the connector (10) during mating with the matable connector.
