Abstract
According to some embodiments, an electrical connector assembly comprises an electrical connector body and a clamping collar disposed over the electrical connector body. The electrical connector body comprises a pair of opposing latch hook strips parallel to an insertion direction of the electrical connector body. Each latch hook strip has an inward-facing latch hook situated along a distal region of an inner surface of the latch hook strip, and a forward-facing, inner-surface slanted platform. The clamping collar is slidably disposed over the latch hook strips. The clamping collar comprises a pair of backward-facing slanted platforms, each configured to engage a corresponding forward-facing slanted platform of a latch hook strip. Sliding the clamping collar forward along the latch hook strips clamps the latch hooks to secure the connector, and sliding the clamping collar backward along the latch hook strips unclamps the latch hooks to release the connector.
