A connector, such as an edge card connector, is provided with positive locking ejection latches. The positive locking of the ejection latches ensure that an associated card inserted into the connector will not accidentally be ejected under shock and vibration conditions. To use the ejection latches, a locking member provided in association with the ejections latches must be disabled.
