Abstract
A low profile electrical connector includes a connector body having a top, a bottom and opposite sides. The connector body has a width defining a width profile and a height defining a height profile of the connector body. The electrical connector includes a latch extending from the connector body. The latch has a first latch, a second latch and an actuator operably connected to the latches. The first and second latches are positioned along the first and second sides. The actuator extends along the top and is actuated downward to deflect the first and second latches from latching positions to released positions. The first and second latches are positioned below the top and above the bottom such that the first and second latches are entirely contained within the height profile of the connector body.
