A connector is provided that comprises a locking ring engaged with a housing, wherein the housing defines a first threaded portion and a second threaded portion, and the locking ring comprises a thread engagement member. The first threaded portion comprises a first pitch that is coarser than a second pitch of the second threaded portion, and accordingly, the thread engagement member engages the first threaded portion and the second threaded portion to secure the locking ring to the housing with a varying amount of axial travel per rotation of the locking ring that corresponds with the pitch of the first threaded portion and the second threaded portion. As a result, the locking ring initially engages the housing with a relatively small rotation followed by relatively larger rotations for complete engagement to a fully mated condition. |
