Abstract
This invention is related to a latchable connector (10) having a plug (12) and a header (14). The header consists of a plug-receiving section (26) along with a pair of posts (16) which are mechanically connected to a printed circuit board. The posts (16) serve to secure the header (14) to a plug through a plurality of latches (30) mounted in the plug housing (11). Locking projections (58) of the latch (30) engage annular grooves (18) of the posts (16) in order to secure the plug (12) to the header (14). A force applied to the latches (30) to urge them towards each other will serve to release the plug (12) from the header (14).
